ATTENTION
Allow all movements to stop before leaving the operator’s position to lubricate or clean the machine. Before working on or underneath the brush mower, place blocks on both sides of the operating vehicle tires or treads and under each end of the mower to pre- vent accidental lowering of the machine. Remove the ignition key from the operating vehicle and allow all movements to stop before beginning work. To transport, disen- gage auxiliary hydraulics and lower the machine to a reasonable ride height.
