Towing

1.Tow only with a machine that has a hitch designed for towing. DO NOT attach towed equipment except at the hitch point.

2.Follow the manufacturer’s recommendation for weight limits for towed equipment and towing on slopes.

3.DO NOT allow children or others on towed equipment.

4.On slopes, the weight of the towed equipment may cause loss of traction and loss of control.

5.Travel slowly and allow extra distance to stop.

Maintenance

1.DO NOT store machine or fuel container inside where fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light such as in a water heater, furnace, clothes dryer or other gas appli- ance. Allow engine to cool before storing machine in an enclosure. Store fuel container out of the reach of children in a well ventilated, unoccupied building.

2.Keep engine free of grass, leaves or excess grease to reduce fire hazard and engine overheating.

3.When draining fuel tank, drain fuel into an approved con- tainer outdoors and away from open flame.

4.Check brakes frequently; adjust, repair or replace as needed.

5.Keep all bolts, nuts and screws properly tight. Check that all cotter pins are in proper position.

12.Mower blades are sharp and can cut. Wrap the blades or wear heavy leather gloves and use CAUTION when han- dling them.
