CHAPTER 1. FOR SAFE OPERATION
9
3.14. Never rest a foot on the brake pedal. If so, the
brakes disc wear rapidly, which may lead to
serious accidents.
3.15. Travelling set with the cruise pedal should be
restricted only to operations in spacious, flat
areas with an unobstructed view and used with
the range shift lever always kept in the low speed
position.
3.16. Never attempt to do the mowing operation without
the discharge cover in place or with the cover left
open.
3.17. Never attempt to operate without the drive shaft
cover in place.
3.18. Do not attempt to adjust the cutting height while
the engine is running.
3.19. 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.
3.20. 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.
3.21. 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.
3.22. Never allow grass or leaves to accumulate
around heated parts such as the engine and the
muffler, or this may cause a fire.
3.23. 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.
3.24. When driving over a levee or step, stop the
mower blades, lift up the mower deck, and move
the front mower straight to the levee and make it
climb over slowly. Avoid climbing over a levee too
high, or the front mower may fall sideways or turn
over.
3.25. Stop the cutting unit(s) when you are crossing
gravel areas
3.26. Watch for traffic when you are operating the
front mower near a roadway or when crossing a
roadway.
