Safety

•Avoid sudden starts when mowing downhill. Mower may tip forwards.

•Be aware that operating on wet grass, across steep slopes or downhill may cause the mower to lose traction. Loss of traction to the drive wheels may result in sliding and a loss of braking and steering.

•Always avoid sudden starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose traction, disengage the blades and proceed slowly off the slope.

•Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for wheel weights or counter weights to improve stability.

•Use extreme care with attachments. These can change the stability of the machine and cause loss of control.

Note: A 2–post foldable ROPS (Rollover Protection System) is available for the Navigator as an accessory. A ROPS is recommended if you will be mowing next to drop-offs, near water, or on steep banks which could result in a rollover. The model number for the ROPS attachment is FRPSNAV. Contact an Authorized Exmark Service Dealer for more details.

Maintenance and Storage

•Disengage drives, lower implement, set parking brake, stop engine and remove key or disconnect spark plug wire. Wait for all movement to stop before adjusting, cleaning or repairing.

•Keep engine, engine area, and pump drive belt compartment free from accumulation of grass, leaves, excessive grease or oil, and other debris which can accumulate in these areas. These materials can become combustible and may result in a fire.

•Let engine cool before storing and do not store near flame or any enclosed area where open pilot lights or heat appliances are present.

•Shut off fuel while storing or transporting. Do Not store fuel near flames or drain indoors.

•Park machine on level ground. Never allow untrained personnel to service machine.

•Use jack stands to support components when required.

•Carefully release pressure from components with stored energy.

•Disconnect battery or remove spark plug wire before making any repairs. Disconnect the negative terminal first and the positive last. Reconnect positive first and negative last.

•Use care when checking blades. Wrap the blade(s) or wear gloves, and use caution when servicing them. Only replace damaged blades. Never straighten or weld them.

•Keep hands and feet away from moving parts. If possible, do not make adjustments with the engine running.

•Charge batteries in an open well ventilated area, away from spark and flames. Unplug charger before connecting or disconnecting from battery. Wear protective clothing and use insulated tools.

DANGER

Charging or jump starting the battery may produce explosive gases. Battery gases can explode causing serious injury.

•Keep sparks, flames, or cigarettes away from battery.

•Ventilate when charging or using battery in an enclosed space.

•Make sure venting path of battery is always open once battery is filled with acid.

•Always shield eyes and face from battery.

DANGER

Battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid, which is poisonous and can cause severe burns. Swallowing electrolyte can be fatal or if it touches skin can cause severe burns.

•Wear safety glasses to shield eyes, and rubber gloves to protect skin and clothing when handling electrolyte.
