To Operate the Machine
Push each bypass lever to the inside and push
them forward (Figure 19).
Note:
The machine will not drive unless the
bypass levers are pushed forward.
Using the Side Discharge
The mower has a hinged grass deflector that
disperses clippings to the side and down toward
the turf.
Without the grass deflector, discharge
cover, or complete grass catcher assembly
mounted in place, you and others are
exposed to blade contact and thrown debris.
Contact with rotating mower blade(s) and
thrown debris will cause injury or death.
•
Never remove the grass deflector from
the mower because the grass deflector
routes material down toward the turf.
If the grass deflector is ever damaged,
replace it immediately.
•
Never put your hands or feet under the
mower.
•
Never try to clear the discharge area or
mower blades unless you move the power
take off (PTO) to the off position, rotate
the ignition key to off and remove the
key.
•
Make sure the grass deflector is in the
down position.
Transporting Machines
Use a heavy-duty trailer or truck to transport the
machine. Ensure that the trailer or truck has all
necessary lighting and marking as required by law.
Please carefully read all the safety instructions.
Knowing this information could help you, your
family, pets or bystanders avoid injury.
To transport the machine:
•
Lock the brake and block the wheels.
•
Securely fasten the machine to the trailer or
truck with straps, chains, cable, or ropes.
•
Secure a trailer to the towing vehicle with
safety chains.
Driving on the street or roadway without
turn signals, lights, reflective markings,
or a slow moving vehicle emblem is
dangerous and can lead to accidents
causing personal injury.
Do not drive machine on a public street
or roadway.
