Operating Safety

Power equipment is only as safe as the operator. If it is

misused, or not properly maintained, it can be dangerous!

Remember, you are responsible for your safety and that of those

around you. Use common sense, and think through what you are

doing. If you are not sure that the task you are about to perform

can be safely done with the equipment you have chosen, ask a

professional: contact your local authorized dealer.

Read the Manual

The operator’s manual contains important safety information you

need to be aware of BEFORE you operate your unit as well as

DURING operation.

Safe operating techniques, an explanation of the product’s features

and controls, and maintenance information is included to help you

get the most out of your equipment investment.

Be sure to completely read the Safety Rules and Information found

on the following pages. Also completely read the Operation section.

Children

Tragic accidents can occur with children. Do not allow them

anywhere near the area of operation. Children are often

attracted to the unit and mowing activity. Never assume that

children will remain where you last saw them. If there is a

risk that children may enter the area where you are mowing,

have another responsible adult watch them.

DO NOT GIVE CHILDREN RIDES ON THIS UNIT! This

encourages them to come near the unit in the future while it

is running, and they could be seriously hurt. They may then

approach the unit for a ride when you are not expecting it,

and you may run over them.

Reverse

Do not mow in reverse unless

absolutely necessary.

Always look down and

behind before and while

traveling in reverse even

with the mower blades

disengaged.

Slope Operation

You could be seriously injured or even killed if you use this unit on too

steep an incline. Using the unit on a slope that is too steep or where you

don’t have adequate traction can cause you to lose control or roll over.

A good rule of thumb is to not operate on any slope you cannot back up

(in 2-wheel drive mode). You should not operate on inclines with a slope

greater than a 3.5 foot rise over a 20 foot length. Always drive up and

down slopes: never cross the face.

Also note that the surface you are driving on can greatly impact stability

to control the unit.

If you feel unsure about operating the unit on an incline, don’t do it. It’s

not worth the risk.

Moving Parts

This equipment has many moving parts that can injure you or someone else.

However, if you are seated in the seat properly and follow all the rules in this book,

the unit is safe to operate.

The mower deck has spinning mower blades that can amputate hands and feet.

Do not allow anyone near the equipment while it is running!

To help you, the operator, use this equipment safely, it is equipped with an

operator-present safety system. Do NOT attempt to alter or bypass the system.

See your dealer immediately if the system does not pass all the safety interlock

system tests found in this manual.

Thrown Objects

This unit has spinning mower blades. These blades can pick up and throw

debris that could seriously injure a bystander. Be sure to clean up the area to

be mowed BEFORE you start mowing.

Do not operate this unit without the entire grass catcher or discharge guard
