SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not do the following:
•Avoid unnecessary turns on slopes, and if turning is necessary turn slowly and gradually, downwards if possible.
•Do not cut close to edges, ditches or banks. The machine can suddenly tip over if a wheel goes over the edge of a drop or a ditch, or if a bank gives way.
•Do not cut wet grass. It is slippery and the tyres can loose their grip so that the machine slides.
•Do not try to stabilise the machine by placing one foot on the ground.
Children
Tragic accidents can occur if the driver does not pay attention to children in the vicinity. Children are often attracted to the machine and the work of mowing. Never assume that children stay where you last saw them.
•Keep children away from the mowing area and under the supervision of another adult.
•Be on your guard and switch off the machine if children come into the work area.
•Before and during reversing look behind and down for small children.
•Never allow children to ride on the machine. They can fall off and become seriously injured or obstruct an otherwise safe manoeuvre of the machine.
•Never allow children to steer the machine.
•Be extra careful close to corners, bushes, trees or other objects which obstruct your view.
Keep children away from the mowing area.
