Improper use or maintenance by the operator or owner
can result in injury. To reduce the potential for injury,
comply with these safety instructions and always pay
attention to the safety alert
symbol, which means
CAUTION, WARNING, or DANGER—“personal
safety instruction.” Failure to comply with the
instruction may result in personal injury or death.
Safe Operating Practices
The following instructions are from the CEN standard EN
836:1997, ISO standard 5395:1990, and ANSI B71.4-1999.
Training
•
Read the operator’s manual and other training material
carefully. Be familiar with the controls, safety signs,
and the proper use of the equipment.
•
If the operator or mechanic can not read the language of
is the owner’s responsibility to explain this material to
them.
•
Never allow children or people unfamiliar with these
instructions to use or service the mower. 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 and mechanics should seek and obtain
professional and practical instruction. The owner is
responsible for training the users. Such instruction
should emphasize:
–
the need for care and concentration when working
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:
•
insufficient wheel grip;
•
being driven too fast;
•
inadequate braking;
•
the type of machine is unsuitable for its task;
•
lack of awareness of the effect of ground
conditions, especially slopes;
•
incorrect hitching and load distribution.
•
The owner/user can prevent and is responsible for
accidents or injuries occurring to himself or herself,
other people, or property.
Preparation
•
While mowing, always wear substantial footwear, long
trousers, hard hat, safety glasses, and ear protection.
Long hair, loose clothing, or jewelry may get tangled in
moving parts. 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—Fuel is highly flammable. Take the
following precautions:
–
Store fuel in containers specifically designed for this
purpose.
–
Refuel outdoors only and do not smoke while
refueling.
–
Add fuel before starting the engine. Never remove
the cap of the fuel tank or add fuel while the engine
is running or when the engine is hot.
–
If fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the engine
but move the machine away from the area of
spillage and avoid creating any source of ignition
until fuel vapors have dissipated.
–
Replace all fuel tanks and container caps securely.
•
Replace faulty silencers/mufflers.
•
Evaluate the terrain to determine what accessories and
attachments are needed to properly and safely perform
the job. Only use accessories and attachments approved
by the manufacturer.
