2.Reduce speed and exercise extreme caution on slopes and in sharp turns to prevent tipping or loss of control. Be especially cautious when changing directions on slopes.

3.Stay two cut widths away from slopes, drop offs, ditches and retaining walls.

4.To prevent tipping or loss of control, start and stop smoothly, avoid unnecessary turns and travel at reduced speed.

5.When using any attachment, never direct the discharge of material toward bystanders or allow anyone near the machine while in operation.

6.Before attempting to start the engine, with the operator in the seat, disengage power to the cutter deck, place the steering control levers in the neutral position and engage the parking brake.

7.If the mower discharge ever plugs, shut off the engine, remove the ignition key, and wait for all movement to stop before removing the obstruction.

14.Take all possible precautions when leaving the machine unattended, such as disengaging the mower, lowering the attachments, setting the parking brake, stopping the engine, and removing the key.

15.Disengage power to the attachments when transporting or when not in use.

16.The machine and attachments should be stopped and inspected for damage after striking a foreign object, and damage should be repaired before restarting and operating the machine.

Caution

Do not touch the engine or the muffler while the engine is running or immediately after stopping. These areas may be hot enough to cause a burn.

WARNING

DO NOT use your hand to dislodge the clogged discharge chute. Use a stick or other device to remove clogged material after the engine has stopped running and the blades have stopped turning.

DANGER

DO NOT run the engine inside a building or a confined area without proper ventilation. Exhaust fumes are hazardous and contain carbon monoxide which can cause brain injury and death.

8.Be alert for holes, rocks, roots and other hidden hazards in the terrain. Keep away from any drop- offs. Beware of overhead obstructions (low limbs, etc.), underground obstacles (sprinklers, pipes, tree roots, etc.). Cautiously enter a new area. Be alert for hidden hazards.

9.Disengage power to cutter deck before backing up. Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary and then only after observation of the entire area behind the mower. If you must mow in reverse, maintain a constant lookout to the rear of the machine and mow slowly.

10.DO NOT turn sharply. Use care when backing up.

11.Disengage power to cutter deck before crossing roads, walks or gravel drives.

12.Mow only in daylight or good artificial light.

13.NEVER raise the deck with the blades engaged.

17.Keep hands and feet away from cutter blades and moving parts. Contact can injure.

18.Transport the mower using a heavy duty trailer or truck. Insure the trailer or truck has all of the necessary lighting and markings as required by laws, codes, and ordinances. Secure a trailer with a safety chain.

19.Be cautious when loading and unloading onto trailers or trucks. Use only a full width ramp. Ramp angle should be no more than 15 degrees. See Figure 2-4, Page 7 to determine approximate slope of the ramp. Back up the ramp and drive down forward.

20.When transporting the mower, make sure the park brake is engaged, the steering control levers are in the neutral position, the engine is off with the key removed, and the wheels have been blocked.

21.Tie the mower down securely using straps, chains, cable, or ropes. Both front and rear straps must be directed down and outward from machine.
