2.69 Always maintain the correct tire pressure. Do not inflate the tires above the recommended pressure. Never weld or heat a wheel
and tire assembly. The heat can cause an increase in air pressure resulting in a tire explosion. Welding can structurally weaken
or deform the wheel.
2.70 Park machine on level ground. Never allow untrained personnel to service machine. Understand service procedure before
doing work.
SAFETY INTERLOCK SYSTEM
Your Bad Boy mower is equipped with a safety interlock system. This system is designed to prevent serious injury or death to the
operator and other people or property damage. The system consists of an operator presence switch in the seat, the parking brake,
drive lever neutral position, the mower blade engagement switch, and the ignition switch.
These interlocks are vitally important and must be tested frequently. Following are instructions to test these very important safety
precautions.
Note: the operator must be seated properly on the machine during these tests and the engine should
have been previously allowed to warm to operating temperature.
2.71 With the parking brake engaged, bring lever arms to their inward position, then attempt to start the machine (the blade actuator
should be in off position); the engine should not start.
2.72 On a level surface, disengage the parking brake and place lever arms to their outward position, then attempt to start the
machine (the blade actuator should be in off position); the engine should not start.
2.73 Engage parking brake and leave lever arms in outward position, put blade actuator in the on position, then attempt to start the
machine; the engine should not start.
2.74 Next, start the engine as stated in the “Mower Operation Section”, disengage parking brake, and Very Slowly begin to rise from
the seat; the engine should stop.
If any of these tests fail to produce the results indicated and the problem cannot be identified, contact your Bad Boy Mower
dealer or the support contacts in the rear of this manual.
ROLL OVER PROTECTION STRUCTURES (ROPS)
If your machine is equipped with ROPS, it is of utmost importance they are used properly. ROPS, when used correctly, dramatically
decrease the fatality rate in instances when the machine overturns.
2.75 Periodically ensure the bolts that attach the ROPS to the machine are securely fastened.
2.76 Always operated the machine with the ROPS secured in the upright position.
2.77 If the surrounding environment (e.g. low lying limbs, signage, etc.) makes it impossible to mow with the ROPS upright, lower
the ROPS at the hinge point, mow the area, then immediately secure the ROPS upright.
2.78 Upright ROPS are taller than then operators head. Be aware of this and your surrounding environment, as referenced above.
The mower and operator may clear low lying items, but the ROPS may not.
2.79 Always wear the provided seat belt when ROPS are utilized. Failure to use the seat belt severely handicaps the safety benefits
of the ROPS.
2.80 In the event of a roll-over, replace the ROPS before resuming use of the machine.
