I. TRAINING
• Read the instructions carefully. Be familiar with the con-
trols and the proper use of the equipment.
• Never allow children or people unfamiliar with the in-
s truc tions to use the lawnmower. Local regulations may
restrict the age of the operator.
• Never mow while people, especially children, or pets are
nearby.
• Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible for
accidents or hazards occurring to other people or their
property.
Do not carry passengers.
• All drivers should seek and obtain professional and prac-
ti cal instruction. Such instruction should em pha size:
- the need for care and concentration when work ing
with ride-on machines;
- control of a ride-on machine sliding on a slope will
not be regained by the application of the brake.
The main reasons for loss of control are:
a) insufficient wheel grip;
b) being driven too fast;
c) inadequate braking;
d) the type of machine is unsuitable for its task;
e) lack of awareness of the effect of ground
conditions,especially slopes;
f) incorrect hitching and load distribution.
II. PREPARATION
• To reduce the risk of fire - before use, when refueling and
at the end of each mowing session - inspect and remove
any debris buildup from the tractor, mower and behind al
guards.
• While mowing, always wear substantial footwear and long
trousers. Do not operate the equipment when barefoot
or wearing open sandals.
• Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to
be used and remove all objects which may be thrown by
the machine.
• WARNING - Petrol is highly flammable.
- Store fuel in containers specifically de signed for this
pur pose.
- Refuel outdoors only and do not smoke while re fu -
el ing.
- Add fuel before starting the engine. Never remove
the cap of the fuel tank or add petrol while the engine
is running or when the en gine is hot.
- If petrol is spilled, do not attempt to start the engine
but move the machine away from the area of spillage
and avoid cre at ing any source of ig ni tion until petrol
vapors have dis si pat ed.
- Replace all fuel tanks and container caps securely.
• Replace faulty silencers.
• Before using, always visually inspect to see that the
blades, blade bolts and cutter assembly are not worn or
damaged. Replace worn or damaged blades and bolts
in sets to preserve balance.
• On multi-bladed machines, take care as rotating one
blade can cause other blades to rotate.
III. OPERATION
• Do not operate the engine in a confined space where
dan ger ous carbon monoxide fumes can collect.
• Mow only in daylight or in good artificial light.
•
Before attempting to start the engine, disengage all blade
attachment clutches and shift into neutral.
• Do not use on slopes of more than 5°.
•
Remember there is no such thing as a “safe” slope. Travel
on grass slopes requires particular care. To guard against
overturning;
- do not stop or start suddenly when going up or down-
hill;
- engage clutch slowly, always keep machine in gear,
especially when traveling down hill;
- machine speeds should be kept low on slopes and
during tight turns;
- stay alert for humps and hollows and oth er hidden
haz ards;
- never mow across the face of the slope, unless the
lawnmower is designed for this pur pose.
• Use care when pulling loads or using heavy equipment.
- Use only approved drawbar hitch points.
- Limit loads to those you can safely control.
- Do not turn sharply. Use care when re vers ing.
- Use counterweight(s) or wheel weights when sug-
gest ed in the instruction hand book.
• Watch out for traffic when crossing or near roadways.
• Stop the blades from rotating before crossing surfaces
other than grass.
• When using any attachments, never direct discharge of
material toward bystanders nor allow anyone near the
machine while in operation.
• Never operate the lawnmower with defective guards,
shields or without safety protective devices in place.
• Do not change the engine governor settings or overspeed
the engine. Operating the engine at excessive speed
may increase the hazard of personal injury.
• Before leaving the operator’s position:
- disengage the power take-off and lower the at tach -
ments;
- change into neutral and set the parking brake;
- stop the engine and remove the key.
• Disengage drive to attachments, stop the engine, and
dis con nect the spark plug wire(s) or remove the ignition
key
- before cleaning blockages or unclogging chute;
- before checking, cleaning or working on the lawn-
mower;
- after striking a foreign object. Inspect the lawnmower
for damage and make repairs before re start ing and
op er at ing the equip ment;
- if the machine starts to vibrate abnormally (check
im me di ate ly).
• Disengage drive to attachments when transporting or not
in use.
