SAFETY
WARNING!
When using the machine, approved personal protective equipment (shown in 
illustrations) shall be used. Personal protective equipment cannot eliminate the 
risk of injury but it will reduce the degree of injury if an accident does happen. 
Ask your retailer for help in choosing the right equipment.
Personal Safety Equipment
• 
Make sure that you have fi rst aid equipment 
close at hand when using the machine.
• 
Never use the machine when barefoot. 
• 
Always wear protective shoes or boots, 
preferably with steel toe caps.
• 
Always wear approved protective glasses or 
a full visor when assembling or driving.
• 
Always wear gloves when handling the 
blades.
• 
Never wear loose clothing that can get 
caught in moving parts.
• 
Use ear protectors to avoid damage to 
hearing.
Slope Operation
Slopes are a major factor related to loss of control and 
tip-over accidents, which can result in severe injury or 
death. Operation on all slopes requires extra caution. If 
you cannot back up the slope or if you feel uneasy on 
it, do not mow it.
• 
Mow up and down slopes (10 degrees 
maximum), not across.
• 
Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or 
other hidden objects. Uneven terrain could 
overturn the machine. Tall grass can hide 
obstacles.
• 
Choose a low ground speed so that you will 
not have to stop while on the slope.
• 
Do not mow on wet grass. Tires may lose 
traction.
• 
Avoid starting, stopping, or turning on a 
slope. If the tires lose traction, disengage the 
blades and proceed slowly straight down the 
slope.
• 
Keep all movement on the slopes slow and 
gradual. Do not make sudden changes in 
speed or direction, which could cause the 
machine to roll over.
• 
Use extra care while operating machine with 
grass catchers or other attachments; they  
can affect the stability of the machine.
 
• 
Do not use on steep slopes.
