FIELD and BRUSH MOWER Safety & Operating Instructions
If the machine gets hung up...
·
Disengage the blade. Do not try to free
the machine from stumps or debris while
the blade is engaged.
·
Try putting the machine in reverse and
backing away from the obstacle.
·
Try pushing down on the handlebars to lift
the mowing deck over the obstacle
(Figure 7) .
·
If you need to leave the operating position,
first put the machine in "N" (neutral), turn
the engine off and disconnect the spark
plug wire.
Caution: DO NOT touch the exhaust
areas when reaching for the spark plug—they are very hot.
Cutting Brush & Saplings
·
When cutting woody material, small
saplings, etc., allow the machine to ride
up and over material slowly. Adjust
your forward speed to varying conditions
(Figure 8) .
·
After cutting brush, etc., you may want
to mow over it again to remove any
remaining branches. It works best to
mow from the trunk end toward the top
as brush lies on the ground.
Reverse
·
Be very careful of your footing when
operating the machine in reverse. Know
what's behind you and take your time.
·
The blade will engage in reverse, however, we don't recommend continuous mowing in reverse.
Mow in the forward gears, using reverse for maneuvering.
·
If you find it difficult to shift into reverse, lightly "feather" the clutch lever as you pull the shift
lever into reverse, then quickly release the clutch lever.
Cutting in Wet & Heavy Growth
·
Be very careful of your footing when mowing in wet conditions. Avoid steep slopes and other
slippery areas.
·
Use a lower, slower speed.
