Slope Operation

You could be seriously injured or even killed if you use this unit on too
steep an incline. Using the unit on a slope that is too steep or where you
don’t have adequate traction can cause you to lose control or roll over.
A good rule of thumb is to not operate on any slope you cannot back up
(in 2-wheel drive mode). You should not operate on inclines with a slope
greater than a 3.5 ft (1,5 m) rise over a 20.0 ft (6,0 m) length. Always
drive up and down slopes: never cross the face. 
Also note that the surface you are driving on can greatly impact stability
and control. Wet grass or icy pavement can seriously affect your ability
to control the unit.
If you feel unsure about operating the unit on an incline, don’t do it. It’s
not worth the risk.

Moving Parts

This equipment has many moving parts that can injure you or someone else. How-
ever, if you are seated in the seat properly, and follow all the rules in this book, the
unit is safe to operate.  
The mower deck has spinning mower blades that can amputate hands and feet.  
Do not allow anyone near the equipment while it is running!  
To help you, the operator, use this equipment safely, it is equipped with an operator-
present safety system. Do NOT attempt to alter or bypass the system.  See your
dealer immediately if the system does not pass all the safety interlock system 
tests found in this manual.

Thrown Objects

This unit has spinning mower blades.  These blades can pick up and throw debris
that could seriously injure a bystander.  Be sure to clean up the area to be
mowed BEFORE you start mowing.  
Do not operate this unit without the entire grass catcher or discharge guard (de-
flector) in place.
Also, do not allow anyone in the area while the unit is running!  If someone does
enter the area, shut the unit off immediately until they leave.

Fuel and Maintenance

Gasoline is extremely flammable.  Its vapors are also extremely flammable and
can travel to distant ignition sources.  Gasoline must only be used as a fuel, not
as a solvent or cleaner.  It should never be stored any place where its vapors
can build up or travel to an ignition source like a pilot light.  Fuel belongs in an
approved, plastic, sealed gas can, or in the tractor fuel tank with the cap se-
curely closed.  Spilled fuel needs to be cleaned up immediately.
Proper maintenance is critical to the safety and performance of your unit.  Be
sure to perform the maintenance procedures listed in this manual, especially pe-
riodically testing the safety system.
