Personal Safety Equipment

Make sure that you have first aid equipment close 

• 

at hand when using the machine.
Never use the machine when barefoot.

• 

Always wear protective shoes or boots, preferably 

• 

with steel toe caps.
Always wear approved protective glasses or a full 

• 

visor when assembling or driving.
Always wear gloves when handling the blades.

• 

Never wear loose clothing that can get caught in 

• 

moving parts.
Use ear protectors to avoid damage to hearing.

• 

Slope Operation

Slopes are a major factor related to loss of control and 
tip-over accidents, which can result in severe injury or 
death. Operation on all slopes requires extra caution. 
If you cannot back up the slope or if you feel uneasy 
on it, do not mow it.

Mow up and down slopes (10 degrees maximum), 

• 

not across.
Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other 

• 

hidden objects. Uneven terrain could overturn the 
machine. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
Choose a low ground speed so that you will not 

• 

have to stop while on the slope.
Do not mow on wet grass. Tires may lose traction.

• 

Avoid starting, stopping, or turning on a slope. If 

• 

the tires lose traction, disengage the blades and 
proceed slowly straight down the slope.
Keep movement on the slopes slow and gradual. 

• 

Do not make sudden changes in speed or 
direction, which could cause machine to roll over.
Use extra care while operating machine with 

• 

grass catchers or other attachments; they can 
affect the stability of the machine.
Do not use on steep slopes.

• 

Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting a 

• 

foot on the ground.
Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or 

• 

embankments. The machine could suddenly roll 
over if a wheel is over the edge or if the edge 
caves in.

WARNING!

When using the machine, approved personal protective equipment (shown in illustrations) 
shall be used. Personal protective equipment cannot eliminate the risk of injury but it 
will reduce the degree of injury if an accident does happen. Ask your retailer for help in 
choosing the right equipment.

WARNING!

Do not drive up or down hills with

not drive across any slopes.
