INTRODUCTION

Your FM84 mower is designed for light-duty cutting such as lawn maintenance plus small weed and grass control. With a reasonable amount of preventive maintenance, your Mower will provide years of dependable service.

DANGER NEVER ALLOW CHILDREN TO OPERATE, RIDE ON, OR COME CLOSE TO MOWER OR TRACTOR. Usually, 15-16 year-old children who are mature and responsible can operate the mower with reasonable safety if they have read Operator's Manual, been trained in safe operation of the machine, and are physically large and strong enough to reach and operate controls easily.

DANGER For Non-Agricultural use, OSHA, ASAE, SAE, and ANSI standards require the use of Chain Guards, Deflectors, or Solid Skirts at all times. The Mower manufacturer strongly recommends the use of Chain Guards or Solid Skirts for Agricultural purposes as well, to reduce the risk of property damage, serious bodily injury, or even death from objects thrown out by or from contact with the Cutting Blades.

WARNING

At least 20% of the tractor’s weight must be on the front tires with the Mower lifted to provide adequate traction for safe steering under good conditions. Slow down on hills, rough terrain, and curves.

Front and rear and left and right are determined by the normal direction of travel, the same as driving an automobile.
