BEFORE OPERATION CONSIDERATIONS (CONT'D)

4.Always wear appropriate clothing, loose fitting clothing, long hair or jewelry could get tangled in moving parts. Do not operate the machine wearing shorts; always wear adequate protective clothing including long pants. Wearing safety glasses, safety shoes and a helmet is advisable and is required by some local ordinances and insurance regulations.

5.Operator hearing protection is recommended, particularly for continuous operation of the mower. Wear suitable hearing protection. Prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause hearing impairment or hearing loss.

6.Keep the machine and attachments in good operating condition. Keep all shields and safety devices in place. If a shield, safety device or decal is defective or damaged, repair or replace it before operating the machine.

WARNING:

This machine is equipped with an interlock system intended to protect the operator and others from injury. This is accomplished by preventing the engine from starting unless the deck drive is disengaged, the transmission is in neutral, and the neutral latches are in the neutral position. The system shuts off the engine if the operator releases the operator presence levers with the deck drive engaged and/or the transmission not in neutral. Never operate equipment with the interlock system disconnected or malfunctioning.

7.Fill the fuel tank with clean, fresh gasoline, with a minimum octane rating of 87. To avoid personal injury or property damage, use extreme care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely flammable and the vapors are explosive.

A. Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other sources of ignition.

B. Use only an approved gasoline container.

C.Never remove the gas cap or add fuel with the engine running. Allow the engine to cool before fueling.

D.Never fuel the machine indoors or in an enclosed trailer.

E.Never store the machine or fuel container where there is an open flame, spark or pilot light such as on a water heater or other appliances.

F.Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place containers on the ground away from your vehicle before filling.

G.Remove the machine from the truck or trailer and fuel on the ground. If this is not possible, then refuel the machine with a portable container, rather than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.

H.Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of fuel tank or container opening at all times until fueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.

I.If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing immediately

J.Replace gas cap and tighten securely.

8.Before attempting to start the engine, shift the transmission into neutral, move the blade engagement switch to the OFF position, and move the neutral latches to neutral.

WARNING

DO NOT OPERATE WITHOUT DISCHARGE CHUTE, MULCHING

KIT, OR ENTIRE GRASS CATCHER INSTALLED

9.The discharge chute must always be installed and in the down position on the side discharge cutter deck except when the Scag optional grass catcher or mulching plate are properly installed.
