SAFETY RULES
SAFE OPERATION PRACTICES FOR RIDE-ON MOWERS
DANGER !
THIS CUTTING MACHINE IS CAPABLE OF AMPUTATING HANDS AND FEET AND THROWING
OBJECTS. FAILURE TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN
SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
GENERAL OPERATION
•
DO NOT operate mower with grass catcher,
unless the front weights are installed.
•
•
•
Read, understand and follow all instructions in the
manual and on the machine before starting.
•
Keep machine free of grass, leaves or other debris
buildup which can touch hot exhaust/engine parts
and burn. Do not allow the mower deck to plow
leaves or other debris which can cause buildup
to occur. Clean any oil or fuel spillage before
operating or storing the machine. Allow machine to
cool before storage.
Only allow responsible adults, who are familiar
with the instructions, to operate the machine.
Clear the area of objects such as rocks, stones,
toys, wire etc., which could be picked up and
thrown by the blades.
•
Be sure the area is clear of all people and pets
before mowing. Stop the machine if anyone enters
the area.
SLOPE OPERATION
Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control
and tip-over accidents, which can result in severe
injury or death. All slopes require extra caution. If
you cannot back up the slope or if you feel uneasy
on it, do not mow it.
•
•
Never carry passengers or children even with
blades off.
Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely
necessary. Always look down and behind before
and while backing.
DO
•
Be aware of the mower discharge direction and do
not direct it towards anyone. Do not operate the
mower without either the entire grass catcher or
the guard in place.
•
•
•
Mow up and down slopes (10° Max.), not across.
Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc.
Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Uneven terrain
could overturn the machine. Tall grass can hide
obstacles.
•
•
Slow down before turning.
Never leave the machine unattended when the
engine is running. Always turn off the blades, set
the parking brake, stop the engine and remove
the key before leaving the machine.
•
Use slow speed. Choose a low speed so that you
will not have to stop while on the slope.
•
Use extra care with grass catchers or other
attachments. These can change the stability of the
machine.
•
•
Turn off blades when not mowing.
Stop engine before removing grass catcher or
unclogging chute.
•
•
Keep all movement on the slopes slow and
gradual. Do not make sudden changes in speed
or direction.
•
•
Mow only in daylight or good artificial light.
Do not operate the machine while under the
influence of alcohol or drugs.
Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose
traction, disengage the blades and proceed slowly
straight down the slope.
•
•
•
Watch out for traffic when operating near or
crossing roadways.
Use extra care when loading and unloading the
machine onto a trailer or truck.
Data indicates that operators, age 60 years and
above, are involved in a large percentage of riding
mower-related injuries. These operators should
evaluate their ability to operate the riding mower
safely enough to protect themselves and others
from serious injury.

attracted to the machine and the mowing activity.
Never assume that children will remain where you
last saw them.
-
-
-
-
Allow engine to cool before refueling.
Do not smoke.
Never refuel the machine indoors.
•
NEVER allow children to operate the machine.
Never store the machine or fuel container
inside where there is an open flame, such as a
water heater.
•
Keep children out of the mowing area and under
the watchful care of another responsible adult.
•
•
Never run a machine inside a closed area.
•
•
•
Be alert and turn off the machine if children enter

INSTALLING SPACER PLUGS
TIPS FOR IMPROVED BAGGING
11
Follow the mower operation instructions in you
mower operator’s manual.
1. Remove plastic end caps from the center two bag
support arms. Fully insert spacer plugs into the
ends of the support tubes. It may be necessary
to tap the spacers into place with a hammer or
mallet. Replace the plastic end cap back over the
spacer. The additional extension will hold the hood
more securely when latched.
When operating your grass catcher on a lawn where
grass and leaf bagging equipment has not been
used, you are picking up thatch and debris that has
accumulated for long periods of time. The amount
collected and the total time of operation may be
greater than you will experience with regular use of
your grass catcher.
•
•
Always run throttle at full speed when bagging.
Select a speed low enough to give good mower
cutting performance, good quality cut and good
bagging performance.
NOTE: It may be necessary to overlap width of
cut to suit your conditions.
•
If grass is extremely tall, it should be mowed twice.
The first time relatively high, the second time to
desired height.
•
•
Use left hand side of mower for trimming.
Plastic trash bags (3.0 mil, 30 gallon) can be
inserted inside grass catcher containers for ease
of debris disposal. To remove the plastic trash
bags when full:
Insert spacers
and replace caps
Remove center
end caps
a. Disengage blades, shift into neutral, engage
the parking brake and stop the engine.
b. Unlatch and raise cover.
c. Remove one container at a time by grasping
container handles and pulling toward the rear,
off of the tube rails.
d. With the container resting on the ground, close
and secure the top of the plastic lawn bag.
e. Tip the container on its side and slide the filled
bag from the container.
f. Install a new plastic lawn bag with the edges
of the bag draped over upper lip of the
Container (for replacement bags refer to
REPLACEMENT PARTS).
g. Repeat for other container.
h. Reinstall containers making sure right
container overlaps left container at center
supports.
i. Close cover and secure latches over center
support tubes.
•
Avoid cutting wet grass or in the morning while the
dew is still heavy. Grass clippings collected under
these conditions tend to be sticky and adhere to
the walls of the flow path causing clogging.

OPERATION
•
If the grass catcher fails to pick up cut grass
STORAGE
or leaves, it is an indication that clogging has
occurred in the system or that the grass catcher
containers are full.
When grass catcher is to be stored for a period
of time, clean it thoroughly, remove all dirt, grass,
leaves, etc. Store in a clean, dry place.
a. Disengage blades, place motion control levers
in neutral position.
-
-
Unlatch and raise cover.
Slide out containers and dispose of
clippings.
CAUTION
Do not leave grass in bagger
containers. Empty containers after
each use and before storing. Failure
to do so may result in spontaneous
combustion which could develop into
a fire.
-
Replace containers, close cover, and
latch.
b. Unlatch chutes and check for clogging.
-
-
Remove all debris in chute.
Reassemble and latch chutes.
GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Always observe safety rules when performing any
maintenance.
•
Before each use check for loose fasteners.
CAUTION
•
Clean unit thoroughly after each use.
Grass catcher components are
subject to wear, damage and
deterioration, which could expose
moving parts or allow objects
to be thrown. Frequently check
components and replace with
manufacturer’s recommended parts,
when necessary.
