Children
Tragic accidents can occur with children. Do not allow them
anywhere near the area of operation. Children are often
attracted to the unit and mowing activity. Never assume that
children will remain where you last saw them. If there is a risk
that children may enter the area where you are mowing, have
another responsible adult watch them.
Slope Operation
Operation on slopes can be dangerous. Using the unit on
a slope that is too steep where you do not have adequate
wheel traction (and control) can cause sliding, loss of
steering, control, and possible rollover. You should not
operate on a slope greater than 15 degrees (a 5.4 foot rise
over a 20 foot length).
Avoid turning down slopes; if possible turn up slopes. Avoid
sudden turns or rapid speed changes. Reduce speed and use
extreme caution on ALL slopes.
Also, note that the surface condition you are on can greatly
impact your ability to safely operate this machine. Operating
on wet or slippery slopes can cause sliding and loss of
steering and control. Do not operate on slopes that are
slippery, wet, or have soft soil conditions.
If you feel unsure about operating the unit on a slope, don’t
do it. It’s not worth the risk.
Thrown Objects
This unit has spinning mower blades. These blades can pick
up and throw debris that could seriously injure a bystander.
Be sure to clean up the area to be mowed and remove
objects that could be thrown by the blade BEFORE you start
mowing.
Do not operate this unit without the entire grass catcher or
discharge guard (deflector) in place.
Also, do not allow anyone in the area while the unit is running!
If someone does enter the area, shut the unit off immediately
until they leave.
Moving Parts
This equipment has many moving parts that can injure you
or someone else. However, if you stay in the operator zone
(stay seated in the seat), and follow the safety rules in this
operator’s manual, the unit is safe to operate.
The mower deck has spinning mower blades that can
amputate hands and feet. Do not allow anyone near the unit
while it is running! Keep safety devices (guards, shields, and
switches) in place and working.
To help you, the operator, use this equipment safely, it is
equipped with an operator-present safety system. Do NOT
attempt to alter or bypass the system. See your dealer
immediately if the system does not pass all the safety
interlock system tests found in this manual.
