General Operation
1.
Read, understand, and follow all instructions on your
equipment and in their manuals before attempting
to assemble and operate. Keep this manual in a
safe place for future and regular reference and for
ordering replacement parts.
2.
To help avoid blade contact or a thrown object
injury, keep bystanders, helpers, children and pets at
least 75 feet from the mower while it is in operation.
Stop machine if anyone enters the area.
3.
Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment

Slow down before turning. Operate the machine
smoothly. Avoid erratic operation and excessive
speed. Be aware that a grass catcher attachment can
affect the handling characteristics of your mower.

CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65
10.
Your machine is designed to cut normal residential
grass. Do not attempt to mow through unusually
tall, dry grass (e.g., pasture) or piles of dry leaves.
Dry grass or leaves may contact the engine exhaust
and/or build up on the mower deck presenting a
potential fire hazard.
11.
If situations occur which are not covered in this
manual, use care and good judgment. Contact your
customer service representative for assistance.
Slope Operation
Slopes are a major factor related to loss of control and
tip-over accidents which can result in severe injury or death.
Attachments can also affect the stability of the machine. All
slopes require extra caution.
For your safety, use the slope gauge included as part of this
manual to estimate the angle of slopes before operating this
machine on a sloped or hilly area. If the slope is greater than
10 degrees as shown on the slope gauge, do not operate the
mower with the grass bag attachment installed on that area
or serious injury could result.
Do:
1.
Mow up and down slopes, not across. Exercise
extreme caution when changing direction on slopes.
2.
Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other hidden
objects. Uneven terrain could overturn the machine.
Tall grass can hide obstacles.
3.
Use slow speed. Choose a low enough speed setting
so that you will not have to stop or shift while on the
slope. Tires may lose traction on slopes even though
the brakes are functioning properly. Always keep
machine in gear when going down slopes to take
advantage of engine braking action.
4.
Follow the manufacturer's recommendations
for wheel weights or counterweights to improve
stability.Keep all movement on the slopes slow and
gradual. Do not make sudden changes in speed or
direction. Rapid engagement or braking could cause
the front of the machine to lift and rapidly flip over
backwards which could cause serious injury.
5.
Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose
traction, disengage the blade(s) and proceed slowly
straight down the slope.
READ THE OPERATOR'S MANUAL(S)
Read, understand, and follow all instructions in the manual(s) before attempting to assemble and operate.
STOP
Turn OFF the engine before opening the bagger cover.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
Do Not:
1.
Do not turn on slopes unless necessary; then, turn
slowly and gradually downhill, if possible.
2.
Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches or
embankments. The mower could suddenly turn over
if a wheel is over the edge of a cliff, ditch, or if an
edge caves in.
3.
Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting your
foot on the ground.
4.
Do not use a grass catcher on steep slopes.
5.
Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could
cause sliding.
General Service
1.
Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, make
certain the blade(s) and all moving parts have
stopped. Disconnect the spark plug wire and ground
against the engine to prevent unintended starting.
2.
Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to be sure the
equipment is in safe working condition.
3.
Never tamper with your mower's safety interlock
system or other safety devices. Check their proper
operation regularly.
4.
Never attempt to make adjustments or repairs while
the mower's engine is running.
5.
Grass catcher components and the discharge cover
are subject to wear and damage which could expose
moving parts or allow objects to be thrown. For
safety protection, frequently check components
and replace immediately with original equipment
manufacturer's (O.E.M.) parts only, listed in this
manual. Use of parts which do not meet the original
equipment specifications may lead to improper
performance and compromise safety!
