WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Excessive wear on skid shoes may cause inadequate operation
of cutter and create a safety hazard.
Two skid shoes are mounted on the center section and
one skid shoe is mounted on each wing section. Check
all skid shoes for wear and replace if necessary. Order
only genuine Land Pride parts from your local Land Pride
dealer.
