1.1  INTRODUCTION 
This manual has been prepared for operators of the 
SNAPPER SCRAMBLER ZERO-TURN MOWER.  Its 
purpose, aside from recommending standard operating 
procedures and routine service requirements, is to 
promote SAFETY through the use of accepted operating 
practices. Read, Understand and Follow the IMPORTANT 
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS on Pages 2 - 4 of this manual 
and All SAFETY messages on the machine and its 
attachments before operating. SNAPPER recommends 
returning the machine to an authorized SNAPPER dealer 
annually for inspection and addition of any new devices, 
which might upgrade the safety of the mower.
