Your mower was built to the highest stan-
dards in the industry. However, your mower is
only as safe as the operator. Carelessness or
operator error may result in serious bodily
injury or death. Hazard control and accident
prevention are dependent upon the aware-
ness, concern, prudence, and proper training
of the personnel involved in the operation,
transport, maintenance, and storage of the
equipment. Make sure every operator is prop-
erly trained and thoroughly familiar with all of
the controls before operating the equipment.
