Safe Operation
Your Zamboni ice resurfacer is the result of many years of experience in the ice resurfacing
eld. The engineering and safety features that have gone into your Zamboni machine will
be enhanced by you, the safe operator...
...who knows his machine and all of the controls,
...who maintains his machine properly,
...who uses his driving skills wisely and operates the machine with safety
in mind.
Because SAFE DRIVING is important to YOU, we urge you to thoroughly acquaint yourself
with the resurfacer and the instructions contained in the Operation Manual. Even the safest
machine can be operated improperly so certain precautions are mentioned in this manual.
Among these precautions are:
• Be sure that all guards originally installed on the machine are properly in
place and in good working order.
• Make sure the hydrostatic transmission is in neutral before starting the engine.
Always look completely around the machine prior to moving forward or
reverse to insure that no one is in the path of your direction of travel.
• The ice resurfacer is to be operated by one, and only one person. No riders!
• Keep everyone off the ice while the resurfacer is operating. Always drive
defensively. Expect the unexpected.
• Keep hands and feet away from conveyors, belts, chains and other moving
parts while the engine is running.
• Allow the engine and catalytic convertor to achieve the correct operating
temperatures before driving and resurfacing.
• The Zamboni machine is an industrial machine designed to be used by trained
and skilled operators. It is never to be used for recreational purposes, such
as racing.
