SHIELDS, GUARDS, AND DEFLECTORS
Shield, Guards, and Deflectors are provided for the protection of the operator and bystanders. The
Manufacturer strongly recommends the use of Protective Shielding at all times. Do not operate the machine
without Shields in place.
RUBBER FABRIC DEFLECTORS (Standard Equipment)
Front Deflector

4” Bolts (5), Flatwashers (6), and Locknuts (7).

Front and Rear rubber-fabric Deflectors are Standard Equipment and Front and Rear Chain
Guards are optional at extra cost. One type of guards must be installed (and maintained in
good repair) except for agricultural purposes only in areas where persons, vehicles,
livestock, or other property will not be endangered by thrown objects and where such safety
equipment would prevent the mower's reasonable performance of its assigned agricultural
task.
DEFLECTORS: Front and Rear Deflectors (Standard Equipment) are recommended for the average user and
will provide protection from thrown objects with proper operation under normal conditions. Deflectors must be
maintained in good repair or replaced after no more than two inches of wear off lower edge.
