Failure to observe the following safety
instructions could result in serious injury or
death.
Training
Read, understand, and follow all instructions on the
machine and in this manual before starting.
Be sure the area is clear of bystanders and pets before
operating. Stop machine if anyone enters the area.
Improper use of power equipment can cause serious
permanent injury or death to the operator or a
bystander.

How to operate all controls
•
The functions of all controls
•
How to STOP in an emergency

Turning radius and clearances
If the operator or the mechanic cannot read the manual,
it is the owner’s responsibility to explain it to them.
ALWAYS train any inexperienced operators and require
them to read and understand all manuals and decals.
Only allow responsible adults, who are familiar with the
instructions, to operate this machine.
Only the operator can prevent and is responsible for
accidents or injuries occurring to themselves, other
people or property.
Operator Age
DO NOT allow children under the age of 18 to operate
any outdoor power equipment.
Local regulations may restrict the age of the operator.
Data indicates operators age 60 years and above are
involved in a large percentage of riding mower-related
injuries.
These operators should evaluate their ability to operate
the riding mower safely enough to protect themselves
and others from serious injury.
Children
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to
the presence of children. Children are often attracted to
the machine and the mowing activity. NEVER assume
that children will remain where you last saw them.
Be alert and turn machine off if a child enters the area.
Before and while backing, look behind and down for
small children.
NEVER carry children, even with the blade(s) shut off.
They may fall off and be seriously injured or interfere
with safe machine operation. Children who have been
given rides in the past may suddenly appear in the
mowing area for another ride and be run over or backed
over by the machine.
NEVER allow children to operate the machine.
Use extreme care when approaching blind corners,
shrubs, trees or other objects that may block your view
of a child.
Keep children out of the mowing area and in the
watchful care of a responsible adult other than the
operator.
Personal Protection
DO NOT wear loose clothing or jewelry and tie back hair
that may get caught in rotating parts.
Wear adequate outer garments.
NEVER wear open sandals or canvas shoes during
operation. Wear adequate safety gear, protective gloves
and footwear.
Wear proper footwear to improve footing on slippery
surfaces.
ALWAYS wear eye and ear protection when operating
machine.
Before Operating
Installing the blower assembly on your mower requires
the removal of the discharge chute and belt guard.
Retain discharge chute, discharge chute hardware, belt
guard, and belt guard hardware in a safe location and
reinstall whenever operating unit without the blower
assembly. DO NOT operate mower unless guards are in
place or blower assembly and entire bagger are
attached.
