GB - 7

Use extra care when handling 
gasoline and other fuels. They are 
flammable and vapors are explosive.

a. Use only an approved container.
b. Never remove gas cap or add 

fuel when engine is running. Do 
not smoke.

c. Never refuel or drain the 

machine indoors.

Check that the operator’s presence 
controls, safety switches and shields 
are attached and functioning properly. 
Do not operate unless they are 
functioning properly.

Operating Safely

Never run an engine in an enclosed 
area where dangerous carbon 
monoxide fumes can collect.

Only operate in good light, keeping 
away from holes and hidden hazards.

Be sure all drives are in neutral and 
parking brake is engaged before 
starting engine. Only start engine from 
the operator’s position.

Be sure of your footing while using 
pedestrian-controlled equipment, 
especially when backing up. Walk, 
don’t run. Never operate on wet grass. 
Reduced footing could cause slipping.

Slow down and use extra care on 
hillsides. Be sure to travel in the 
recommended direction on hillsides. 
For this machine, drive across 
hillsides, not up and down. Turf 
conditions can affect the machine’s 
stability. Use caution while operating 
near drop-offs.

Slow down and use caution when 
making turns and when changing 
directions on slopes.

Never raise deck with the blades 
running.

Never operate with guards not 
securely in place. Be sure all 
interlocks are attached, adjusted 
properly, and functioning properly.

Never operate with the discharge 
deflector raised, removed or altered, 
unless using a grasscatcher. Do not 
operate mower without discharge 
chute or entire grasscatcher in place.

Do not change the engine governor 
setting or overspeed the engine. 
Operating the engine at excessive 
speed can increase the hazard of 
personal injury.

Stop on level ground, lower 
implements, disengage drives, engage 
parking brake, and shut off engine 
before leaving the operator’s position 
for any reason including emptying the 
grasscatchers or unclogging the 
chute.

Stop equipment and inspect blades 
after striking objects or if an abnormal 
vibration occurs. Make necessary 
repairs before resuming operations.

Keep hands and feet away from the 
cutting units.

Look behind and down before backing 
up to be sure of a clear path.

Never carry passengers and keep pets 
and bystanders away.

Slow down and use caution when 
making turns and crossing roads and 
sidewalks. Stop blades if not mowing. 
Watch for traffic when operating near 
or crossing roadways.

Be aware of the mower discharge 
direction and do not point it at anyone.

Do not operate the machine while 
under the influence of alcohol or 
drugs.

Use care when loading or unloading 
the machine into or off of a trailer or 
truck.

Use care when approaching blind 
corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects 
that may obscure vision.

Inspect machine before you operate. 
Be sure hardware is tight. Repair or 
replace damaged, badly worn, or 
missing parts. Be sure guards and 
shields are in good condition and 
fastened in place. Make any 
necessary adjustments before you 
operate.

Before using, always visually inspect 
to see that the blades, blade bolts and 
the mower assembly are not worn and 
damaged. Replace worn and 
damaged blades and bolts in sets to 
preserve balance.

Keep safety labels visible when 
installing accessories and 
attachments.

Do not wear radio or music 
headphones. Safe service and 
operation require your full attention.

When machine is left unattended, 
stored, or parked, lower the mower 
deck unless a positive mechanical lock 
is used.

Be sure all drives are in neutral and 
parking brake is locked before starting 
engine. Stand as far away from the 
discharge chute as possible with feet 
well away from the underside of the 
deck to start machine.

Do not hang or secure any item to the 
control console. The operator’s station 
should always remain unobstructed.

Do not pull mower backwards while 
the blades are rotating. Use the 
reverse gear to move the machine in 
reverse.
