INSTALL SAFETY SHIELDING
Optional Chain Shielding
Full chain, rubber, or steel band shielding must be installed when operating in populated areas or other areas where thrown objects could injure peo- ple or damage property.
•If this machine is not equipped with full chain, rubber, or steel band shielding, operation must be stopped when anyone comes within 300 feet (92 m).
•This shielding is designed to reduce the risk of thrown objects. The mower deck and protec- tive devices cannot prevent all objects from escaping the blade enclosure in every mowing condition. It is possible for objects to ricochet and escape, traveling as much as 300 feet (92 m).
The optional chain shielding assemblies are ready for installation when you receive them. You must remove rear steel band before installing rear chain shielding.
1.Refer to Front & Rear Chain Shielding, page 45, and attach as shown by inserting the bolts from inside the cutter frame out through the shielding.

NOTE: Rear band and front rubber deflector can be discarded if using chain shielding.
