				SAFETY RULES   
					Safe Operation Practices for Ride-On Mowers   
					• 
					• 
					• 
					If you strike a foreign object, stop and inspect the   
					IV.TOWING   
					machine. Repair, if necessary, before restarting.   
					Nevermakeanyadjustmentsorrepairswiththeengine   
					running.   
					• 
					Tow only with a machine that has a hitch designed for   
					towing. Do not attach towed equipment except at the   
					hitch point.   
					Follow the manufacturer's recommendation for weight   
					limits for towed equipment and towing on slopes.   
					Never allow children or others in or on towed equip-   
					ment.   
					On slopes, the weight of the towed equipment may   
					cause loss of traction and loss of control.   
					Travel slowly and allow extra distance to stop.   
					Check grass catcher components and the discharge   
					guard frequently and replace with manufacturer's rec-   
					ommended parts, when necessary.   
					Mower blades are sharp. Wrap the blade or wear   
					gloves, and use extra caution when servicing them.   
					Check brake operation frequently. Adjust and service   
					as required.   
					•

					• 
					Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as   
					necessary.   
					V. SERVICE   
					SAFE HANDLING OF GASOLINE   
					To avoid personal injury or property damage, use extreme   
					care in handling gasoline.Gasoline is extremely flammable   
					and the vapors are explosive.   
					• 
					Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other   
					sources of ignition.   
					• 
					Be sure the area is clear of bystanders before operat-   
					ing. Stop machine if anyone enters the area.   
					Never carry passengers.   
					• 
					• 
					Use only approved gasoline container.   
					Never remove gas cap or add fuel with the engine run-   
					ning. Allow engine to cool before refueling.   
					Never fuel the machine indoors.   
					Never store the machine or fuel container where there   
					is an open flame, spark, or pilot light such as on a water   
					heater or other appliances.   
					Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or   
					trailer bed with plastic liner. Always place containers   
					on the ground away from your vehicle when filling.   
					Removegas-poweredequipmentfromthetruckortrailer   
					and refuel it on the ground. If this is not possible, then   
					refuel such equipment with a portable container, rather   
					than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.   
					Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank   
					orcontaineropeningatalltimesuntilfuelingiscomplete.   
					Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.   
					• 
					• 
					Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary.   
					Always look down and behind before and while back-   
					ing.   
					Nevercarrychildren,evenwiththebladesshutoff. They   
					may fall off and be seriously injured or interfere with   
					safemachineoperation.Childrenwhohavebeengiven   
					rides in the past may suddenly appear in the mowing   
					area for another ride and be run over or backed over   
					by the machine.   
					Keepchildrenoutofthemowingareaandinthewatchful   
					care of a responsible adult other than the operator.   
					Be alert and turn machine off if a child enters the   
					area.   
					Before and while backing, look behind and down for   
					small children.   
					Mow up and down slopes (15° Max), not across.   
					Be alert and turn machine off if a child enters the   
					area.   
					Choose a low ground speed so that you will not have   
					to stop or shift while on the slope.

					GENERAL SERVICE   
					• 
					• 
					• 
					• 
					Never operate machine in a closed are.   
					Keep all nuts and bolts tight to be sure the equipment   
					is in safe working condition.   
					Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper   
					operation regularly.   
					Keep machine free of grass, leaves, or other debris   
					build-up. Clean oil or fuel spillage and remove any fuel-   
					soaked debris. Allow machine to cool before storing.   
					Avoid starting, stopping, or turning on a slope. If the   
					tires lose traction, disengage the blades and proceed   
					slowly straight down the slope.   
					If machine stops while going uphill, disengage blades,   
					shift into reverse and back down slowly.   
					• 
					• 
					• 
					• 
					Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, turn   
					slowly and gradually downhill, if possible.

				OPERATION   
					• 
					Avoid cutting wet grass or in the morning while the dew   
					TIPS FOR IMPROVED BAGGING   
					OPERATION:   
					is still heavy. Grass clippings collected under these   
					conditions tend to be sticky and adhere to the walls of   
					the flow path causing clogging.   
					Follow the mower operation instructions in your tractor   
					owner's manual.   
					• 
					Your bagger is equipped with a full bagger indicator.   
					Movement of the wheel increases as the bags fill.The   
					wheel will be spinning fastest just before the bags fill   
					completely.When the wheel stops, it indicates that the   
					bags are full and the chutes have become clogged.   
					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.   
					NOTE: To help prevent clogging of chutes, check/empty   
					bags when the wheel is spinning fast.Experience will teach   
					you the best time to empty the bags.   
					• 
					• 
					Always run throttle at full speed when bagging.   
					Care should be taken not to damage the parts and that   
					the wheel spins freely at the beginning of each use.   
					If the grass catcher fails to pick up cut grass or leaves,   
					it is an indication that clogging has occurred in the   
					system or that the grass catcher containers are full.   
					Usually this is indicated by the stopped movement of   
					the full bagger indicator.   
					Select a gear 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.   
					a. Disengage blades, shift into neutral, engage the   
					parking brake and stop the engine.   
					- Raise seat. Unlatch and raise cover.   
					- Slide out containers and dispose of clippings .   
					- Replace containers, close cover, and latch.   
					b. Unlatch chutes and check for clogging.   
					- Remove all debris in chutes.   
					• 
					• 
					Use left hand side of mower for trimming.   
					Plastic trash bags can be inserted inside grass catcher   
					containers for ease of debris disposal. To remove the   
					plastic trash bags when full:   
					a. Disengage blades, shift into neutral, engage the   
					parking brake and stop the engine.   
					b. Raise seat. Unlatch and raise cover.   
					- Reassemble and latch chutes   
					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.   
					c. Checktoinsurefullbaggerindicatorhasnotbecome   
					clogged.   
					- The air passage hole must be clear of debris.   
					Gentlyinsertasmalltwigorwireintopassageway   
					to clear.

					g. Repeat for other containers.   
					h. Reinstall containers making sure right container   
					overlaps left container at center supports.   
					j. Closecoverandsecurelatchesovercentersupport   
					tubes.   
					• Do not operate mower with grass catcher   
					partially installed.   
					• Disengage blades and stop engine before   
					leaving tractor seat to empty containers,   
					unclogging chutes, etc.   
					• Close cover before starting.   
					• Disengage mower when crossing driveways   
					or gravel surfaces and other areas where   
					thrown objects could be a hazard.   
					• Do not attempt to vacuum up cans or other   
					potentially hazardous projectiles.
