Operation
Before Operation
Before Operation Safety
•
Evaluate the terrain to determine what accessories
and attachments are needed to properly and
safely perform the job. Only use accessories and
attachments approved by Exmark.
•
Inspect the area where the machine is to be used
and remove all rocks, toys, sticks, wires, bones,
and other foreign objects. These can be thrown
or interfere with the operation of the machine
and may cause personal injury to the operator or
bystanders.
•
This mower was designed for one operator only.
Do Not carry passengers.
•
Wear appropriate personal protective equipment
such as safety glasses, long pants, substantial
slip-resistant footwear, and hearing protection.
Tie back long hair and avoid loose clothing and
loose jewelry which may get tangled in moving
parts.
•
This machine produces sound levels in excess of
85 dBA at the operator’s ear and can cause hearing
loss through extended periods of exposure. Wear
hearing protection when operating this machine.
•
Check that the following items are in place and in
proper working condition: the operator presence
controls, safety switches, guards, shields, discharge
deflector and/or the entire grass catcher system.
Do not operate the machine unless they are in
proper working condition. Replace worn or
deteriorated parts with genuine Exmark parts
when necessary.
DANGER
It is essential that operator safety mechanisms
be connected and in proper operating
condition prior to use. Contacting the blade
can result in serious personal injury.
Shut off the engine and wait for all moving
parts to stop before leaving the operating
position. When the blade control bail is
released, the blade should stop within 3
seconds. If not, stop using the machine
immediately and contact an Authorized
Service Dealer.
•
Do Not operate the mower when people,
especially children, or pets are in the area. Shut
off the machine and attachment(s) if anyone
enters the area.
•
Do Not operate the machine without the entire
grass collection system, discharge deflector,
or other safety devices in place and in proper
working condition. Grass catcher components
are subject to wear, damage and deterioration,
which could expose moving parts or allow objects
to be thrown. Frequently check for worn or
deteriorating components and replace them with
the manufacturer’s recommended parts when
necessary.
Fuel Safety
DANGER
Gasoline is extremely flammable and vapors are
explosive.
A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you,
others, and cause property damage.
•
Fill the fuel tank outdoors on level ground,
in an open area, when the engine is cold. If
fuel is spilled, Do Not attempt to start the
engine. Move away from the area of the spill
and avoid creating any source of ignition until
fuel vapors have dissipated.
•
Do Not refill the fuel tank or drain the
machine indoors or inside an enclosed trailer.
•
Never smoke when handling gasoline, and
stay away from an open flame or where
gasoline fumes may be ignited by spark.
•
Add fuel before starting the engine. Never
remove the cap of the fuel tank or add fuel
when engine is running or when the engine
is hot.
•
Store gasoline in an approved container and
keep it out of the reach of children.
•
Do Not operate without entire exhaust system
in place and in proper working condition.
•
In certain conditions during fueling, static
electricity can be released causing a spark which
can ignite gasoline vapors.
– Do Not fill containers inside a vehicle or on a
truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always
place containers on the ground and away from
your vehicle before filling.
