 Allow only responsible adults, who are familiar with
the instructions in this manual, to operate the ma-
chine.
 Clear the area to be mowed of loose objects such as
sticks, stones, bones, wire, toys, debris, etc., which
could be picked up and thrown by the blades.
 DO NOT mow whilst people, especially children, or
pets are in the mowing area.
 DO NOT mow either direction on slopes beyond 15
degrees, (1 in 3.75), (27%).
 Exercise extreme caution on slopes.
 Reduce speed on slopes and in sharp turns to pre-
vent overturning or loss of control.
 Start or stop slowly when on slopes.
 Mow up and down slopes, not across the slope.
 Stay alert for holes or bumps in the terrain and other
hidden hazards.
 Use care when pulling loads-
a] Use only approved hitch point;
b] limit loads to those you can safely control;
c] Do not turn sharply;
d] use care when backing up.
 Watch out for traffic when crossing or operating the
mower near roadways.
 Stop the blades rotating before crossing surfaces
other than grass.
 When using attachments, never direct discharge of
material toward bystanders nor allow anyone near
the machine while it is in operation.
 Before leaving the operators position-
a] Disengage all clutches and secure cutting units;
b] Return drive pedal to neutral position and set the
parking brake;
c] Stop the engine and remove the key.
 Disengage drive to attachments and stop engine-
a] Before refueling.
b] Before removing grass-catcher;
c] Before clearing blockages from chute;
d] Before checking, cleaning or working on the
mower;
e] After striking a foreign object (check the mower
for damage and make repairs before restarting and

mediately).
 Disengage drive to attachments when transporting or
not in use.
 A mower operator should be in good physical and
mental health and not under the influence of alcohol
or any drug which might impair vision, co-ordination
or judgment.
 Never mow while barefoot or wearing open sandals
or thongs. Wear long trousers and heavy shoes.
 It is advisable to wear suitable eye protection when
operating a mower.
 Mow only in daylight or good artificial light.
 Before using, always visually inspect to see that
blades, bolts and cutter assembly are not worn or
damaged. Replace worn or damaged blades and
bolts in sets to preserve balance.
 Check all nuts, bolts, and screws often; always be
sure the mower is in safe operating condition.
 Keep safety devices (guards and switches) in place
and in working order.
 Never use the mower unless the grass catcher, or
guards provided by the manufacturer, are in position.
 Ensure any replacement parts used comply with the
original manufacture’s recommendations and specifi-
cations.
 Replace worn or faulty silencers.
 Keep machine free of grass, leaves or other debris,
excessive oil, grease, or spilt fuel. These can be a
fire hazard.
 Refuel outdoors only. Do not smoke while fueling
engine. Never remove the cap of the fuel tank or add
petrol while the engine is running or the engine is
hot. Remove fuel cap slowly to relieve any tank pres-
sure. If fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the
engine but move machine away from the area of the
spill and avoid creating any source of ignition until
fuel vapors have dissipated.
 Check for fuel leaks while refueling, before and while
using the mower. If a fuel leak is found, do not start
or run the engine until the fuel leak is fixed and
spilled fuel is wiped away.
 Do not operate engine in a confined space where
exhaust fumes (carbon monoxide) can collect.
 Always mount the mower from the left or the oppo-
site side to the discharge chute.
 Start the engine carefully with the cutting means dis-
engaged.
 Do not over-speed the engine or alter governor set-
tings. Excessive speed is dangerous and shortens
mower life.
 Stop the engine whenever you leave the mower,
even for a moment.
 Store the mower in a well-ventilated room away from
naked flames such as may be found in hot water
heaters.
 Do not lend or sell the mower, without the owners/
operators Manual.
