SAFETY RULES

Safe Operation Practices for Riding Vehicles

As Recommended by American National Standards Institute

WARNING: This cutting machine is capable of amputating hands and feet and throwing objects. Failure to observe the

following safety instructions could result in serious injury or death to the operator or bystanders.

GENERAL OPERATION:

1. Read, understand and follow all instructions in the Instruction Book, on the machine, the engine and with any attachments before

starting.

2. Only allow responsible adults familiar with the instructions to operate the machine.

3. Clear the area of objects such as rocks, toys, wire, etc. which could be picked up and thrown by the blade.

4. Be sure the area is clear of other people before mowing. Stop the machine if anyone enters the area.

5. Never carry passengers.

6. Disengage power to the mower or any attachments before backing up. Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary. Always

look down and behind before and while backing.

7. Be aware of the direction the mower discharges. Do not point discharge from the mower at anyone or at places where people may be.

Do not operate the mower without either the entire grass bagger or the mower guard in place.

8. Slow down before turning.

9. Never leave a machine unattended with the engine running. Always disengage the blade(s), set the parking brake, stop the engine and

remove the key before dismounting.

10. Disengage power to attachment(s) when transporting or not in use. Disengage the blade(s) when not mowing.

11. Stop the engine before removing the grass bagger or unclogging the chute.

12. Mow only in daylight or good artificial light.

13. DO not operate the machine while under the influence of alcehol or drugs or when very tired.

14. Watch for traffic when operating near or crossing roadways.

15. Use extra caution when loading or unloading the machine when using a trailer or truck for transporting.

16. Disengage all attachment clutches and shift into Neutral before attempting to start the engine.

17. Always wear safety glasses or an eye shield when you operate the unit to protect your eyes from foreign objects that can be thrown

from the unit. Always wear eye protection when you make an adjustment or repair to the machine.

18. Use care when pulling loads or using heavy equipment.

a. Use only approved drawbar hitch points.

b. Limit loads to those you can safely control.

c. Do not turn sharply. Use care when backing.

d. Use counterweights or wheel weights when suggested in the Instruction Book.

19. Do not operate this machine if you are taking drugs or other medication which can cause drowsiness or affect your ability to operate

this machine.

20. Do not use this machine if you are mentally or physically unable to operate this machine safely.

SLOPE OPERATION:

Slopes and rough terrain are major factors related to loss of control and tip over accidents which can result in severe injury or

death. ALL slopes require extra caution. If you cannot back up the slope or if you feel uneasy on the slope, do not mow it. See the

"Slope Guide" in the back of this book to check for safe operation.

1. Mow up and down slopes, not across.

2. Remove obstacles such as rocks, limbs, etc...

3. Watch for holes, ruts or bumps. Uneven terrain could overturn the machine. "Tall grass can hide obstacles."

4. Use slow speed. Choose a low enough gear so that you will not have to stop or shift while on the slope.

5. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for wheel weights or counterweights to improve stability.

6. Use extra care with grass baggers or other attachments, they can change the stability of the machine.

7. Keep all movement on the slopes slow and gradual. Do not make sudden changes in speed or direction.

8. Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose traction, disengage the blades and proceed slowly straight down the slope.

DO NOT

1. Do not turn on slopes unless absolutely necessary, then only turn slowly and gradually downhill, if possible.

2. Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches or embankments. A wheel over the edge or an edge caving in could cause a sudden overturn and

an injury or death.

3. Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could cause sliding.

F-95900

4. Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting your foot on the ground.

5. Do not use a grass bagger or other rear mounted accessories on steep slopes (greater than 10 degrees).

CHILDREN:

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted to the machine and

the mowing activity. NEVER assume that children will remain where you last saw them,

1. Keep children out of the mowing area and in the watchful care of an adult other than the operator.

2. Be alert and turn the engine off if children enter the area.

3. Before and when backing, look behind end down for small children.

4. Never carry children or any passengers. They may fall off and be seriously injured or interfere with the safe operation of the machine.

5. Never allow children to operate the machine. Instruct children in the dangers of the machine.

6. Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees or other objects that may obscure vision.

SERVICE:

1. Use extra care when handling gasoline and other fuels. Fuels are flammable and the vapors are explosive.

a. Use only an approved container.

b. Never remove the gas cap or add fuel with the engine running. Allow the engine to cool for several minutes before refueling. Do

not smoke.

c. Never refuel the machine indoors.

d. Never store the machine with fuel in the tank or fuel container inside where there is an open flame, such as a water heater.

2. Never start or run the engine inside a closed area.

3. Keep all nuts and bolts, especially the blade attachment nuts tight. Frequently check the blade(s) for wear or damage such as cracks

and nicks. A blade that is bent or damaged must be immediately replaced with an original equipment blade from an authorized service

dealer. For safety, replace the blade every two years. Keep the equipment in good condition.

4. Never tamper with the safety devices. Check their proper operation regularly.

5. To reduce fire hazards keep the machine free of grass, leaves or other debris buildup. Clean up oil or fuel spills. Allow the machine

to cool before storing.

6. Stop and inspect the equipment if you strike an object. Repair, if necessary, before restarting.

7. Never make adjustments or repairs with the engine running. The carburetor can be adjusted with the engine running. Do not change

the engine governor settings or overspeed the engine.

8. Grass bagger components are subject to wear, damage and deterioration, which could expose moving parts or allow objects to be

thrown. For storage, always make sure the grass bag is empty. Frequently check components and replace with manufacturer's recom-

mended parts when necessary.

9. Mower blade(s) are sharp and can cut. Wrap the blade(s) or wear gloves and use extra caution when servicing them or the blade housing

area.

10. Check the brake operation frequently. Adjust and service as required.

11. Wait for all movement to stop before servicing any part of the unit.

across the face of slopes.

On a riding mower to determine if a slope is safe to mow: (1) disengage the blade(s), (2) put the unit in reverse, and (3) try to back straight up the

slope. If you can back up the slope, it is generally safe to mow. However, if you do not feel safe, or if you are not completely sure, use this guide

and do not mow a slope that is greater than 15 degrees. If the riding mower is used with a pull-behind or rear mounted attachment,

do not operate the unit on a slope that is greater than 10 degrees.

A 15 degree slope is a hill that increases in height at approximately 2.5 feet in 10 feet.

A 10 degree slope is a hill that increases in height at approximately 1.7 feet in 10 feet.

Use extreme care at all times, and avoid sudden turns or maneuvers. Follow other instructions in this manual for safety in mowing on

slopes. Operate a riding mower up or down slopes, never across the face of slopes. Operate a walk-behind mower across the face

of slopes, never up or down slopes. Use extra care when operating on or near slopes and obstructions.
