OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

Rhino FN180/FN120 NITRO rotary mowers are manufactured with quality material by skilled workers. These mowers are designed to cut grass, weeds, crop stalks, brush and other vegetation up to 5” diameter. The mower is equipped with protective deflectors and/or chain guards to prevent objects being thrown from the mower by the blades, however, no shielding is 100% effective. All shields, guards, deflectors, and chains equipped on the unit must be maintained on the mower in good operational condition.

It is the operator’s responsibility to be knowledgeable of all potential operating hazards and to take every reasonable precaution to ensure oneself, others, animals, and property are not injured or damaged by the mower, tractor, or a thrown object. Do not operate the mower if passersby, pets, livestock, or property are within 300 feet of the unit.
