Safety Instructions
The REELMASTER 2300±D/2600±D conforms to the American National Standards Institute's (ANSI) safety standards for riding mowers when equipped with rear ballast (see Operator's Manual). Although hazard con- trol and accident prevention are partially dependent upon the design and configuration of the machine, these factors are also dependent upon the awareness, con- cern, and proper training of the personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance, and storage of the machine. Improper use or maintenance of the machine can result in injury or death.
WARNING
To reduce the potential for injury or death, comply with the following safety instruc- tions.
