— Use proper equipment shut down practices before
inspecting equipment. Wait until all equipment
motion has stopped before dismounting the tractor or
mower.
— Do not operate mower unless tractor and mower are
running properly. Place a “Do Not Operate” tag on
the machine, remove the key and do not operate the

Power Takeoff System
Be sure to operate the tractor at the mower’s rated PTO
rpm speed.
When operating tractors with transmission-driven PTO
systems, a rotary mower will have a signifi cant fl ywheel
effect. The mower may continue to propel a tractor with
a transmission-driven PTO system.
The tractor should be equipped and operated as follows:
— Install a driveline equipped with an over-running
clutch.
— Give yourself suffi cient maneuvering room and time
by anticipating turns, stops and speed reductions.
