SAFETY

WARNING!

WARNING!

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.

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.

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)

WARNING!

Do not put hands or feet under mower decks. Blade Contact can result

 

serious injury or even death. Stay away until all motion has stopped and

 

the decks are securely blocked up. (SGM-9)

DANGER!

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. (SGM-10)

WARNING!

Mow only in conditions where you have clear visibilities in daylight or

 

with adequate artificial lighting. Never mow in darkness or foggy

 

conditions where you cannot clearly see at least 100 yards in front

 

and to the sides of the Tractor and Mower. Make sure that you can

 

clearly see and identify passersby, steep slopes, ditches, drop-offs,

 

overhead obstructions, power lines, gas lines, debris, and foreign

 

objects. If you do not have clear and safe visibility discontinue

 

mowing. (SGM-11)

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, gas lines or when debris, and foreign objects are to be avoided.
