SAFETY

 

 

 

 

DANGER!

All Safety Shields, Guards and Safety devices including

 

(but not limited to) - the Deflectors, Chain Guards, Steel

 

Guards, Gearbox Shields, Hydraulic Tank Shields, and

 

Retractable Door Shields should be used and main-

 

tained in good working condition. All safety devices

 

should be inspected carefully at least daily for missing

 

or broken components. Missing, broken, or worn items

 

must be replaced at once to reduce the possibility of

 

injury or death from thrown objects, entanglement, or

 

blade contact. (SGM-3)

DANGER!

The rotating parts of this machine have been designed and tested for

 

rugged use. However, they could fail upon impact with heavy, solid objects

 

such as steel guard rails and concrete abutments. Such impact could

 

cause the broken objects to be thrown outward at very high velocities. To

 

reduce the possibility of property damage, serious injury, or even death,

 

never allow the cutting blades to contact such obstacles. (SGM-4)

WARNING!

Extreme care should be taken when operating near loose objects such as

 

gravel, rocks, wire, and other debris. Inspect the area before mowing.

 

Foreign objects should be removed from the site to prevent machine

 

damage and/or bodily injury or even death. Any objects that cannot be

 

removed must be clearly marked and carefully avoided by the operator.

 

Stop mowing immediately if blades strike a foreign object. Repair all

 

damage and make certain rotor or blade carrier is balanced before

 

resuming mowing. (SGM-5)

WARNING!

Many varied objects, such as wire, cable, rope, or chains, can become

 

entangled in the operating parts of the mower head. These items could then

 

swing outside the housing at greater velocities than the blades. Such a

 

situation is extremely hazardous and could result in serious injury or even

 

death. Inspect the cutting area for such objects before mowing. Remove any

 

like object from the site. Never allow the cutting blades to contact such items.

 

(SGM-6)

WARNING!

Mow at the speed that you can safely operate and control the tractor and

 

mower. Safe mowing speed depends on terrain condition and grass type,

 

density, and height of cut. Normal ground speed range is from 0 to 5 mph.

 

Use slow mowing speeds when operating on or near steep slopes, ditches,

 

drop-offs, overhead obstructions, power lines, or when debris and foreign

 

objects are to be avoided. (SGM-7)

WARNING!

Avoid mowing in reverse direction when possible. Check to make sure there

 

are no persons are behind the mower and use extreme care when mowing in

 

reverse. Mow only at a slow ground speed where you can safely operate and

 

control the tractor and mower. Never mow an area in the reverse direction that

 

you have not inspected and removed debris or foreign material. (SGM-8)

WARNING!

Do not put hands or feet under mower decks. Blade Contact can result serious

 

injury or even death. (SGM-9)
