INSTALL CHAIN SHIELDING (OPTIONAL)

Full chain shielding must be installed when
operating in populated areas or other areas where
thrown objects could injure people or damage
property.
• If this machine is not equipped with full chain
shielding, operation must be stopped when any-
one comes within 300 feet (92 m).
• This shielding is designed to reduce the risk
of thrown objects. The mower deck and protec-
tive devices cannot prevent all objects from
escaping the blade enclosure in every mowing
condition. It is possible for objects to ricochet
and escape, traveling as much as 300 feet (92 m).

Full chain shielding is required for all non-agri-
cultural mowing. Full shielding is also recom-
mended for all agricultural use to further reduce
the risk of thrown objects.
The chain shield assemblies are ready for installation
when you receive them.
Install front and rear chain shielding as shown using
carriage bolts (9) and lock nuts (10).
