needed to control the speed. The mower will freely roll if it is moved on an inclined surface without
pressing the brake pedal or setting the parking brake. Failure to follow these instructions can result
in loss of control and result in death, serious personal injury, or property damage.
WARNING!
Use care when loading or unloading the mower onto a trailer. Ensure the cutting deck is raised to the
highest position so that it is not caught on the ramp. The wheels on the mower can go off the ramp
or trailer, causing the mower to pivot or tip over, and result in a crush hazard that can cause death or
serious personal injury.
• Park the mower on a level surface.
• Raise the cutting deck to the highest position.
• Position and secure ramp to the trailer according to manufacturer’s instructions.
NOTE:
We recommend you use one full width loading ramp that is at least 1 ft. wider than the mower to
minimize the risk of the mower’s wheels going off the side of the ramp.
• Slowly drive the mower onto the ramp and into the trailer.
• Lower mower deck completely.
• Set the parking brake.
• Turn off mower and remove key.
• Secure the mower as needed using straps or cables to prevent movement during transport.
WARNING!
To avoid accidental starting or movement that could result in serious personal injury, always remove
the start key and set the parking brake when transporting the mower.

Before performing any maintenance, stop the mower, wait for the blades to come to a complete

could result in objects being thrown into your eyes resulting in possible serious injury.
