REPAIRING 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).

Repairing Front Rubber Shield & Rear Band

1.Inspect front rubber shield and rear band each day of operation.

2.Replace if bent, cracked, or broken.

Repairing Optional Chain Shielding

Inspect chain shielding each day of operation and replace any broken or missing chains as required.
