Initial Operating Safety Guidelines: 

 Read and understand the warning on the 

instrument panel of the mower. 

 Keep a firm hold on the stationary handle at all 

times. 

 Know the controls and how to stop quickly.

 

 Before attempting to start the engine, follow all

starting instructions below and in the engine 
operator’s manual. 

 Look behind before backing up and use 

extreme caution when backing up while 
standing on the Velke. 

 Before leaving the operator’s pos

engagement switch and apply the parking 
brake. Keep others from coming near the 
mower. Return to the operator position as 
soon as possible. 

en leaving the Wright mower unattended, 

turn off the blade clutch engageme
switch, apply the parking brake, stop the 
engine and remove the key. Never leave 
the machine unattended on a slope. If the 
parking brake becomes disengaged, the 
mower could roll which would be 
hazardous. 

 When transporting, driving onto transport 

vehicles, into buildings, across park

Operation on Slopes: 

DO NOT operate on steep slopes. Do not 
operate the mower on slopes steeper than you 
can feel secure about the traction of the tires an
the stability of the mower. Do not operate the 
mower on slopes at all when the grass is wet. 
There is a danger of suddenly sliding sideways or
down the hill. When operating on a slope, travel 
across the grade whenever possible, not in an u
