To reduce fire hazard and overheating, keep
equipment free of grass, leaves, debris or
excessive lubricants.
Use extra care with grass catchers and other
attachments. These can change the stability
of the unit. Use only approved hitch points.
ALWAYS be aware of attachments when
turning. ALWAYS allow adequate clearance
between attachments, personnel, and other
objects.
NOTE: Gravely does not recommend or
approve of the use of a sulky or other
stand-on or sit-on device for transporting
the operator on this unit. Use of such
devices may render the machine unsafe
and will void the warranty.
