WARNING! The operator and all support personnel should wear hard hats,
safety shoes, safety glasses, and proper hearing protection at all
timesforprotectionfrominjuryincludinginjuryfromitemsthrownby
the equipment. (SG-16)
WARNING! Transport only at safe speeds. Serious accidents and injuries can
result from operating this equipment at unsafe speeds. Understand
the Tractor and Implement and how it handles before transporting on
streets and highways. Make sure the Tractor steering and brakes are
in good condition and operate properly.
Before transporting the Tractor and Implement, determine the safe
transport speeds for you and the equipment. Make sure you
abide by the following rules:
Be aware of the operating conditions. Do not operate the Tractor with
weak or faulty brakes. When operating down a hill or on wet or rain
slick roads, the braking distance increases: use extreme care and
reduceyourspeed. Whenoperatingin trafficalways use theTractor’s
flashing warning lights and reduce your speed. Be aware of traffic
around you andwatch out for the other guy. (SG-19)
2. Test the equipment at a slow speed in turns. Increase the speed
through the turn only after you determine that it is safe to operate
at a higher speed. Use extreme care and reduce your speed when
turning sharply to prevent the tractor and implement from turning
over. Determine the maximum safe turning speed for you and this
equipment before operating on roads or uneven ground.
3. Only transport the Tractor and Implement at the speeds that you
have determined are safe and which allow you to properly control the
equipment.
1. Test the tractor at a slow speed and increase the speed slowly.
Apply the Brakes smoothly to determine the stopping
characteristics of the Tractor and Implement.
As you increase the speed of the Tractor the stopping distance
increases. Determine the maximum safe transport speed for
you and this Equipment.
CAUTION! PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO LOUD NOISE MAY CAUSE PER-
MANENT HEARING LOSS! Tractors with or without an Implement
attached can often be noisy enough to cause permanent hearing
loss. We recommend that you always wear hearing protection if the
noise in the Operator’s position exceeds 80db. Noise over 85db
over an extended period of time will cause severe hearing loss.
Noiseover 90db adjacent to the Operator over an extended period of
time will cause permanent or total hearing loss. Note: Hearing loss
from loud noise [from tractors, chain saws, radios, and other such
sources close to the ear] is cumulative over a lifetime without hope
of natural recovery. (SG-I7)

WARNING! Avoid mowing in the reverse direction when possible. Check to
makesure there are no persons behind the mower and use extreme
care when mowing in reverse. Mow only at a slow ground speed
where you can safely operate and control the Tractor and Mower.
Never mow an area in the reverse direction that you have not
inspected and removed debris or foreign material. (SGM-13)
DANGER! Always disconnect the main PTO Driveline from the Tractor before
performing service on the Mower. Never work on the Mower with the
tractor PTO driveline connected and running. Blades or Drivelines could
turn without warning and cause immediate entanglement, injury or death.
(SRM-3)
DANGER! Do not turn so sharp or lift mower so high to produce a severe
"knocking" of the Driveline which will cause accelerated wear and
breakage of drive train components and could result inpossible injury
from the separated Driveline sections. (SRM-4)
WARNING! Do not let the Blades turn when the Mower Deck is raised for
any reason, including clearance or for turning. Raising the
Mower deck exposes the Cutting Blades which creates a
potentially serious hazard and could cause serious injury or even
death from objects thrown from the Blades. (SRM-7)
WARNING! NeverleaveTractorandImplementedunattendedwhiletheimplement

To properly park the implement when disconnecting it from the tractor,
lowerthestandandputtheretainingpinsecurelyinplace,orputasecure
support under the A-Frame. Lower the implement carefully to the
ground. Do not put hands or feet under lifted components. (S3PT-1)
DANGER! RotaryMowers are capable under adverse conditions
of throwing objects for great distances (100yardsor
more) and causing serious injury or death. Follow
safety messages carefully
-Front and Rear Deflectors, Chain Guards, or Bands are installed
and in good, workable condition;
-Mower sections or Wings are running close to and parallel to the
ground without exposed Blades;
-Passersby are outside the existing thrown-object zone;
-All areas have been thoroughly inspected and all foreign material
such as rocks, cans, glass, andgeneraldebrishasbeenremoved.
NOTE: Wherethere are grass and weeds high enoughto hide debris
that could be struck by the blades, the area should be: inspected
andlargedebrisremoved,mowedatanintermediateheight,inspected,
closely with any remaining debris being removed, and mowed again
at desired final height. (This will also reduce power requiredto mow,
reduce wear and tear on the Mower drivetrain, spread cut material
better, eliminate streaking, and make the final cut more uniform.)
