SAFETY

DANGER!

WARNING!

The rotating parts of this machine have been designed and tested for rugged use. However, the blades could fail upon impact with heavy, solid objects such as metal guard rails and concrete structures. Such impact could cause the broken objects to be thrown outward at very high velocities. To reduce the possibility of property damage, serious injury, or even death, never allow the cutting blades to contact such obstacles.

Extreme care should be taken when operating near loose objects such as gravel, rocks, wire, and other debris. Inspect the area before mowing. Foreign objects should be removed from the site to prevent machine damage and/or bodily injury or even death. Any objects that cannot be removed must be clearly marked and carefully avoided by the operator. Stop mowing immediately if blades strike a foreign object. Repair all damage and make certain rotor or blade carrier is balanced before resuming mowing.

WARNING!	Many varied objects, such as wire, cable, rope, or chains, can become
	entangled in the operating parts of the mower head. These items could
	then swing outside the housing at greater velocities than the blades. Such
	a situation is extremely hazardous and could result in serious injury or
	even death. Inspect the cutting area for such objects before mowing.
	Remove any like object from the site. Never allow the cutting blades to
	contact such items. (SGM-6)
WARNING!	Mow at the speed that you can safely operate and control the tractor and
	mower. Safe mowing speed depends on terrain condition and grass type,
	density, and height of cut. Normal ground speed range is from 0 to 5 mph.
	Use slow mowing speeds when operating on or near steep slopes,
	ditches, drop-offs, overhead obstructions, power lines, or when debris and
	foreign objects are to be avoided. (SGM-7)
WARNING!	Avoid mowing in reverse direction when possible. Check to make sure
	there are no persons behind the mower and use extreme care when
	mowing in reverse. Mow only at a slow ground speed where you can safely
	operate and control the tractor and mower. Never mow an area that you
	have not inspected and removed debris or foreign material. (SGM-8)

DANGER!

WARNING!

Replace bent or broken blade with new blades. NEVER ATTEMPT TO STRAIGHTEN OR WELD ON BLADES SINCE THIS WILL LIKELY CRACK OR OTHERWISE DAMAGE THE BLADE WITH SUBSE- QUENT FAILURE AND POSSIBLE SERIOUS INJURY FROM THROWN BLADES.

Do not mow with two machines in the same area except with Cab tractors with the windows closed.
