4.7 HILLSIDE OPERATION

WARNING:

DO NOT operate on steep slopes. To check a slope, attempt to back up it (with the cutter deck down). If the machine can back up the slope without the wheels slipping, reduce speed and use extreme caution. ALWAYS FOLLOW OSHA APPROVED OPERATION.

1.The mower has been designed for good traction and stability under normal mowing conditions. However, caution must be used when traveling on slopes, especially when the grass is wet. Wet grass reduces traction and steering control.

2.To prevent tipping or loss of control, do not start or stop suddenly, avoid unnecessary turns and travel at reduced speed.

3.Keep tires properly inflated.

-IMPORTANT-

Do not wash a hot or running engine. Cold water will damage the engine. Use compressed air to clean the engine if it is hot.

2.Keep the entire mower clean to inhibit serious heat damage to the engine or hydraulic oil circuit.

3.Check the drive belts for proper alignment and any signs of wear. Correct and adjust if necessary.

To avoid injury from burns, allow the mower to cool before removing the fuel tank cap and refueling.

4.After the mower has cooled down, fill the fuel tank with fresh, clean fuel at the end of every day of operation.

5.Check the tire pressure. Adjust pressure if necessary.

4.8 PARKING THE MOWER

1.Place the steering control levers in the neutral position.

2.Disengage the cutter blades

3.Slow the engine to idle speed.

4.Engage the parking brake.

5.Turn the ignition key to the OFF position and remove the key.

4.9 AFTER OPERATION

1.Wash the entire mower after each use. Do not use high pressure spray or direct the spray onto electrical components.
