SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Never make adjustments with the engine
running.
• Ensure that nuts and bolts, especially the
fastening bolts for the blade attachments,
are properly tightened, torqued and that
the equipment is in good condition.
• Do not modify safety equipment. Check
regularly to be sure it works properly.
The machine must not be used with
defective or unmounted protective
plates, protective cowlings, safety
switches, or other protective devices.
• Do not change the settings of governors
and avoid running the engine with overly
high engine speeds. If you run the
engine too fast, you risk damaging the
machine components.
• Never use the mower indoors or in spaces
lacking proper ventilation. The exhaust fumes
contain carbon monoxide, an odorless,
poisonous, and lethal gas.
• Stop and inspect the equipment if you
run over or into anything. If necessary,
make repairs before starting.
• The machine is tested and approved only
with the equipment originally provided or
recommended by the manufacturer.
• The blades are sharp and can cause
cuts and gashes. Wrap the blades or use
protective gloves when handling them.
• The mulch blades should only be used in
familiar areas when higher quality
mowing is desired.
• Reduce the risk of fire by removing
grass, leaves, and other debris that may
have accumulated on the machine. Allow
the machine to cool before putting it in
storage.
Transport
• The machine is heavy and can cause
serious crushing injuries. Be extra
cautious when it is loaded on or
unloaded from a vehicle or trailer.
• Use an approved trailer to transport the
mower. Fasten the machine with approved
fastening devices, such as straps, chains,
or ropes, when transporting.
