Operation Instructions
During Operation
WARNING
Ensure that all bystanders are clear of the mower
before starting tractor engine. Objects thrown by the
mower blades can cause severe personal injury or
death.
Before any operation of the mower, be familiar with
the locations and functions of the unit's controls. Being
familiar with the mower and its controls will increase
efficiency and reduce the possibility of serious injury
or damage to the unit.
The operator should work slowly and carefully until he
feels comfortable with the mower. Speed and skill will
be attained much more easily if the necessary time is
spent to familiarize yourself with the mower and its
operation.
Get into the habit of completing a walkaround
inspection before use. This procedure is a simple
method of inspecting your unit's condition by walking
around and looking at each component of the unit,
including the tractor. This procedure has been used by
airline pilots for many years as a final inspection
before flight and is also used by long distance ground
transportation drivers on buses and trucks. During the
walkaround, you will visually search your units tire
condition, look for hydraulic leaks, fuel leaks, inspect
hose condition and condition of hydraulic cylinders.
Look for loose or worn components, see that all
guards are in place, check blade condition, look for
broken or inoperative lights and determine that it is or
is not operable before use. We recommend that you
follow this procedure before start up.
