2.65 If you strike something with the mower, turn the mower and blades off, engage the parking brake, and
inspect the mower for damage. Repair, if necessary, before resuming.
2.66 Never make any adjustments or repairs with the engine running.
2.67 Check grass catcher components and the discharge guard frequently and replace with manufacturer’s
recommended parts, when necessary.
2.68 Mower blades are sharp. Wrap the blade or wear gloves before servicing them.
2.69 Check parking brake operation frequently. Adjust and service as required.
2.70 Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as necessary.
2.71 Do not attempt to mount a tire without the proper equipment and experience to perform the job.
2.72 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.
2.73 Park the mower on level ground. Never allow untrained personnel to service the mower. Understand
service procedures before doing work.
2.74 Mower deck, frame, and engine compartment should remain free of debris to prevent premature part
failures or fire hazards.
SAFETY INTERLOCK SYSTEM
Your Bad Boy mower is equipped with a safety interlock system. This system is designed to prevent property
damage and severe injury or death to the operator and bystanders. These interlocks are essential and must be
tested before each use. To test the interlock system, follow the steps below . Note: unless otherwise noted,
the operator must be seated properly on the mower during these tests. Additionally, the mower should
be at operating temperature during this test.
2.75 With the parking brake engaged, bring the lever arms to their inward position. Attempt to start the
mower with the PTO switch in the OFF position. The engine should not start. Continue test.
2.76 On a level surface, disengage the parking brake and place lever arms to their outward position. Attempt
to start the mower with the PTO switch in the OFF position. The engine should not start. Continue test.
2.77 Engage the parking brake and leave the lever arms in their outward position. Put PTO switch in the ON
position. Again, attempt to start the mower; the engine should not start. Continue test.
2.78 Start the engine, as stated in the Mower Operation Section. Disengage the parking brake and very
slowly begin to rise from the seat. The engine should stop. If the seat has been relieved of body weight
and the engine has not stopped, there is a fault within the interlock system. End test.
If the safety interlock system does not operate as described above, an Authorized Service Dealer must repair
this safety system immediately. The mower is unsafe to operate in this condition.
ROLL OVER PROTECTION STRUCTURES (ROPS)
This mower is equipped with ROPS from the factory. It is vital that the rules below are adhered to. ROPS, when
used correctly, dramatically decrease the fatality rate in roll-over instances.
2.79 Periodically ensure the bolts that attach the ROPS to the mower are securely fastened.
2.80 Always operate the mower with the ROPS secured in the upright position.
2.81 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.
2.82 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.
2.83 Always wear the provided seat belt when ROPS are utilized. Failure to use the seat belt severely
handicaps the safety benefits of the ROPS.
2.84 In the event of a roll-over, replace the ROPS before resuming use of the mower.
