Personal Safety Equipment

WARNING!

When using the machine, approved personal protective equipment (shown in illustrations) shall be used. Personal protective equipment cannot eliminate the risk of injury but it will reduce the degree of injury if an accident does happen. Ask your retailer for help in choosing the right equipment.

•Make sure that you have first aid equipment close at hand when using the machine.

•Never use the machine when barefoot.

•Always wear protective shoes or boots, preferably with steel toe caps.

•Always wear approved protective glasses or a full visor when assembling or driving.

•Always wear gloves when handling the blades.

•Never wear loose clothing that can get caught in moving parts.

•Use ear protectors to avoid damage to hearing.

Slope Operation

Slopes are a major factor related to loss of control and tip-over accidents, which can result in severe injury or death. Operation on all slopes requires extra caution. If you cannot back up the slope or if you feel uneasy on it, do not mow it.

•Mow up and down slopes (10 degrees maximum), not across.

•Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other hidden objects. Uneven terrain could overturn the machine. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

•Choose a low ground speed so that you will not have to stop while on the slope.

•Do not mow on wet grass. Tires may lose traction.

•Avoid starting, stopping, or turning on a slope. If the tires lose traction, disengage the blades and proceed slowly straight down the slope.

•Keep movement on the slopes slow and gradual. Do not make sudden changes in speed or direction, which could cause machine to roll over.

•Use extra care while operating machine with grass catchers or other attachments; they can affect the stability of the machine.

•Do not use on steep slopes.

•Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting a foot on the ground.

•Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. The machine could suddenly roll over if a wheel is over the edge or if the edge caves in.
