2. Carefully read the instructions for use. Make sure you are familiar with the
controls and know how to stop the blades and the engine quickly.
3. SAFETY - Do not risk INJURY or DEATH. Allow only those who have become
competent in its usage to operate this machine.
4. Do not charge or operate the mower in the rain or in wet areas.
5. Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could cause sliding.
6. Before starting the mower or beginning operations, be familiar with the controls.
The operator must be in the operator seat. The blades must be disengaged, and
the Parking Brake engaged.
7. Keep all Shields in place. Keep away from moving parts.
8. Never put your hands or feet next to or beneath the rotating parts and always
keep away from the exit.
9. Do not use the machine when in a precarious state of health or under the effect of
medicine or any other substances that can reduce your reflex actions and your
ability to concentrate. It is the user's responsibility to assess the potential risk of
the area where work is to be carried out, and to take all the necessary precautions
to ensure his own safety and that of others, particularly on slopes or rough,
slippery, and unstable ground.
10. Do not leave the machine on high grass with the engine running to avoid the risk
of starting a fire.
11. NO RIDERS! Keep all people and pets a safe distance away. Look behind and
down to both sides of the mower before and while backing up.
12. Avoid slopes where possible. Never operate on slopes greater than 15°. Slopes
with a greater incline present dangerous operating conditions that may cause
the mower to tip or roll over.
13. Before leaving the operator’s seat, disengage the blades and engage the
Parking Brake, shut off the mower, and remove the Key. Wait for all movements
to stop before servicing or cleaning.
14. Avoid any sudden movements of the steering wheel when starting and stopping.
Keep a firm grip on the steering wheel at all times.
15. Be careful when operating near roadways. Stop the mower’s motion and wait for
vehicles to pass before operating along the road.
16. Do not operate the mower with the mower deck removed. Removal of the deck
will change the balance of the mower and could contribute to a mower tipping or
roll over.
