Slope Operation

You could be seriously injured or even killed if you use this unit on too 

steep an incline. Using the unit on a slope that is too steep or where you 

don’t have adequate traction can cause you to lose control or roll over.
A good rule of thumb is to not operate on any slope you cannot back up 

(in 2-wheel drive mode). You should not operate on inclines with a slope 

greater than a 3.5 foot rise over a 20 foot length. Always drive up and 

down slopes: never cross the face. 
Also note that the surface you are driving on can greatly impact stability 

and control. Wet grass or icy pavement can seriously affect your ability to 

control the unit.
If you feel unsure about operating the unit on an incline, don’t do it. It’s 

not worth the risk.

Moving Parts

This equipment has many moving parts that can injure you or someone 

else. However, if you are seated in the seat properly and follow all the rules 

in this book, 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 equipment while it is running!
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 sys-

tem. See your dealer immediately if the system does not pass all the safety 

interlock system tests found in this manual.

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 BEFORE you start mowing. 
Do not operate this unit without the entire grass catcher or discharge guard 

(deflector) in place.
Do not allow anyone in the mowing area while the unit is running! If someone 

does enter the area, shut the unit off immediately until they leave.

Fuel and Maintenance

Gasoline is extremely flammable. Its vapors are also extremely flammable 

and can travel to distant ignition sources. Gasoline must only be used as a 

fuel, not as a solvent or cleaner. Fuel should never be stored any place where 

its vapors can build up or travel to an ignition source like a pilot light. Fuel 

belongs in an approved, plastic, sealed gas can, or in the tractor fuel tank with 

the cap securely closed. Spilled fuel needs to be cleaned up immediately.
Proper maintenance is critical to the safety and performance of your unit. Be 

sure to perform the maintenance procedures listed in this manual and be sure 

to periodically test the safety system.
