CHAPTER 1. FOR SAFE OPERATION
11
3.12. Never operate the front mower in terrain where there
are ditches, holes, or steps easy to collapse. In such
a place, the front mower could turn over or fall.
3.13. Before making access to moving parts, stop the
engine, and keep your hands, feet, clothing, acces-
sories and etc. away so as not to be caught in the
moving parts of the front mower.
3.14. Be alert when you approach blind corners and
objects that may obscure your vision. Watch for
holes, ruts, or bumps. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
3.15. Never rest a foot on the brake pedal. If so, the
brakes disc wear rapidly, which may lead to serious
accidents.
3.16. Travelling set with the cruise lever should be
restricted only to operations in specious, flat areas
with an unobstructed view and used with the range
shift lever always kept in the low speed position.
3.17. Never attempt to do the mowing operation without
the discharge cover in place or with the cover left
open.
3.18. Never attempt to operate without the drive shaft
cover in place.
3.19. Do not attempt to adjust the cutting height while the
engine is running.
3.20. Adjust the cutting height with the gauge wheels in
accordance with the condition of the ground surface
at the working site. Mowing on rough ground with
low cutting height may cause the blades to hit soil or
stones, which is very dangerous.
3.21. If you strike an object or if the front mower vibrates
abnormally, stop the front mower immediately, wait for
all moving parts to stop, and inspect the cutting unit(s).
Make all repairs before you resume operation.
3.22. Be sure to keep the grass discharging part clean. A
clogged discharging part may cause the discharge
cover to open, resulting in scattering of grass and
stones, which is very dangerous.
3.23. Never allow grass or leaves to accumulate around
heated parts such as the engine and the muffler, or
this may cause a fire.
3.24. Before moving the front mower to another place, be
sure to stop the mower blades and lift up the mower
deck. Otherwise, they may hit stones and scatter
them around, which is very dangerous.
