OPERATING YOUR TRAILMOWER

OPERATING YOUR TRAILMOWER

The operation of any mower can produce foreign objects to be thrown into the eyes, resulting in severe eye damage. Always wear certified safety glasses or wide-vision safety goggles over spectacles before staring any cutting machine and while operating such a machine.

The operation of any cutter produces sound waves that are damaging to the human ear. Ear protection is recommended.

CAUTION!

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted to the machine and the mowing activity. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.

INTENDED USE

The 44” Rugged Cut Trail Mower is designed to clear dense areas of grass and cut saplings up to 1 inch thick on golf courses and small estates. It is not intended to create a finish cut on lawns.Your Trail Mower should be towed behind an ATV, golf cart, lawn tractor, or other approved vehicle. It is not recommended for speeds exceeding 5 MPH.

ATTACHING TRAILMOWER TO TOW VEHICLE

Back vehicle up to desired towing position.

Offset the Trail Mower to the side opposite the tow vehicle discharge (if any). This prevents the tow vehicle from throwing grass into Trail Mower engine.

Bolt swivel hitch (H10) to vehicle tow receiver. If tow vehicle has a ball hitch, the ball must be removed before swivel hitch can be fastened.

Attach tow hitch and the “L” hitch (4866 & H1) to the swivel hitch. The hitch pin (H11) should go completely through both the swivel and “L” hitches and clipped to prevent accidental separation. Check that all hardware is secure at

both the tow vehicle and the Trail Mower.

TRANSPORTING MOWER

Stop Trail Mower.

Place Trail Mower deck in its highest position.

When transporting unattached from tow vehicle, remove spark plug wire and

place it where it cannot contact the spark plug.

ENGAGING BLADES

Note: Do not start the mower with the T-handle console is in the “ENGAGED” position.
