ACCIDENT PATTERNS TO AVOID
 
I. 
CONTACT WITH THE ROTATING 
BLADE -- This accident usually 
happens when the operator is clearing 
the discharge chute of grass, (especially 
when the grass is wet), or when the 
operator adjusts the machine without 
turning it off and waiting for the blades 
to completely stop. 
II. 
PROPELLED OBJECTS - Sticks, 
rocks, wires, and other objects can be 
propelled out through the discharge chute or 
from under the mower housing. Bystanders 
are particularly vulnerable. 
III.         GRASS CATCHER OR GUARD - The 
mower shall not be operated without either 
the entire grass catcher or guard in place. 
IV.        OVERTURNING - This happens when riding 
mowers are used on steep slopes, 
embankments or hills. The operator in 
these cases can come in contact with the 
blades or sustain injuries during a fall. 
V. 
MOWER RUNNING OVER THE 
VICTIM ~ This usually happens when a 
riding mower is driven in reverse. The 
accident victims are most often young 
children whom, unseen by the operator of 
the mower, were in the area being mowed. 
 
 
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND 
RECOMMENDATIONS
 
1. 
PEOPLE WHO OPERATE, SERVICE, 
OR ARE OTHERWISE ASSOCIATED
 
with the Zero Turning Radius Mower 
should be trained in its proper use and 
warned of its dangers. Before operating, 
adjusting, or servicing the Zero Turning 
Radius Mower they should read and 
understand this entire manual and the 
engine owner's manual. 
2. 
AVOID CONTACT WITH MOVING 
PARTS. Keep hands and feet from 
under mowing deck and away from 
blades at all times. Turn engine (motor) 
off if you must unclog the chute. 
3. 
AVOID HILLS AND SLOPES. Use 
.extreme caution when mowing up or 
down slopes. NEVER mow across the 
face of a slope. If a slope must be 
ascended, back up the slope; drive 
forward when descending. Reduce ~ 
speed and use caution to start, stop and 
maneuver. To prevent loss of control on a 
slope avoid sharp turns, sudden changes 
in direction, and sudden stops and starts. 
4. 
DISENGAGE POWER TO MOWER 
BEFORE BACKING UP. Do not mow 
in reverse unless ABSOLUTELY 
necessary and then only after turning 
around and observing the entire area 
behind the mower. Go slowly. Most 
"running over victim" accidents occur in 
reverse. 
5. 
BEGINNING OPERATORS SHOULD 
LEARN HOW TO STEER the Zero 
Turning Radius Mower before 
attempting to mow. Start with slow 
engine speed and drive without the 
blades engaged in an open area until 
comfortable with the machine. 
 
"6. 
KNOW HOW TO STOP QUICKLY. 
Know the location and operation of 
every control, especially how to brake 
and how to disengage the mower 
blades.
