WARNING: Remove all objects from the work area that might be picked up and thrown by the blades.
WARNING: Do not mow when children and others are around.
WARNING: Do not fill fuel tank while engine is running or hot.
WARNING: Keep all safety shields and deflectors in place during operation.
CAUTION: Remove grass build up from under safety shields before each use. Do not remove safety shields while engine is running. Dry grass build up around belts and sheaves can cause fires.
WARNING: Shut off engine before disconnecting the mower from the tow vehicle or attempting to move the wing mower by hand.
WARNING: Never carry children or passengers.
WARNING: Do not allow children to operate this machine.
CAUTION: Slow down and watch the ends of the mower when making turns so objects are not struck and/or run over.
WARNING: Look down, to the sides, and behind before and while backing to avoid backing over something or someone. Care should also be taken while backing so that the wing mower or mowers do not jackknife and damage hitches.
WARNING: Stop the mower blades on the mower if the tow vehicle becomes stuck or stops going forward because of loss of traction. Shut off the engine on the mower before attempting to push or pull the tow vehicle.
Listen to the rough cut mower engine while mowing. The engine should run free and not work too hard. Working the engine too hard will cause overheating and premature failure.
CAUTION: If the mower’s engine dies while in use, remove the rough cut mower from the uncut area before attempting to engage the clutch. Inspect the blades for any obstructions that may prevent blade engagement. Failure to follow these instructions may result in premature belt failure or a fire.
Do not allow material to build up on the air inlet to the engine cooling system. Special care should be taken to make sure the engine is getting enough inlet air. Do not allow the engine cooling fins under the shroud to be blocked. If air flow over the engine is restricted, the engine could overheat.
