5.3 OPERATING PROCEDURES
CAUTION
To help prevent injury, always wear safety
glasses, leather work shoes or boots, a
hard hat, and ear protection
1. Under no circumstances should the
engine be started without the operator
seated on the tractor.
2. Do not operate tractor or attachments with
loose, damaged or missing components.
Whenever possible mow when grass is
dry.
3. First mow in a test area to become
thoroughly familiar with the operation of
the tractor and control levers.
Never operate the reels unless they are mowing
grass. Heat will develop between the bedknife and
reel and damage the cutting edge.
4. Study the area to determine the best and
safest operating procedure. Consider the
height of the grass, type of terrain, and
condition of the surface. Each condition
will require certain adjustments or
precautions.
5. Never direct discharge of material toward
bystanders, nor allow anyone near the
machine while in operation. The owner/
operator is responsible for injuries inflicted
to bystanders and/or damage to their
property.
CAUTION
Pick up all debris you can find before
mowing. Enter a new area cautiously.
Always operate at speeds that allow you to
have complete control of the tractor.
6. Use discretion when mowing near gravel
areas (roadway, parking areas, cart paths,
etc.). Stones discharged from the
implement may cause serious injuries to
bystanders and/or damage the equipment.
7. Always turn reel switch off to stop blades
when not mowing.
