Safety

Check that the operator’s presence controls, safety switches, and shields are attached and functioning properly. Do Not operate unless they are functioning properly.

Operation

WARNING

Operating engine parts, especially the muffler, become extremely hot. Severe burns can occur on contact and debris, such as leaves, grass, brush, etc. can catch fire.

Allow engine parts, especially the muffler, to cool before touching.

Remove accumulated debris from muffler and engine area.

Install and maintain in working order a spark arrester before using equipment on forest-covered, grass-covered, or brush-covered unimproved land.

WARNING

Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, which is an odorless deadly poison that can kill you.

Do Not run engine indoors or in a small confined area where dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can collect.

WARNING

Operating a Navigator tractor without an approved Exmark front mount attachment increases the possibility of operator entanglement in drive wheels or forward tip over. Entanglement or tip-over could cause serious injury or death.
