WARNING
Never allow passengers to ride on the unit.
Before leaving the operator’s position for any
reason, engage the parking brake, disengage
the PTO, stop the engine and remove the key.
To reduce fire hazard, keep the engine, tractor
and mower free of grass, leaves and excess
grease. Do not stop or park tractor over dry
leaves, grass or combustible materials.
Gasoline is highly flammable and must be
handled with care. Never fill the tank when the
engine is still hot from recent operation. Do not
allow open flame, smoking or matches in the
area. Avoid over-filling and wipe up any spills.
WARNING
Never operate on slopes greater than 15° which
is a rise of 5.4 feet (1,6 m) vertically in 20 feet (6
m) horizontally.
Select slow ground speed before driving onto
a slope. Use extra caution when operating on
slopes with a rear-mounted grass catcher.
Mow across the face of slopes, not up and
down, use caution when changing directions
and DO NOT START OR STOP ON SLOPE.
WARNING
Do not load this zero-turn rider on a trailer or
truck using two separate ramps. Only use
a single ramp that is at least one foot wider
than the width of the rear wheels of this rider.
This rider has a zero turning radius and the
rear wheels could fall off the ramps, or the
rider could tip over injuring the operator or
bystanders.
