SAFETY RULES ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED! Safety is a primary concern in the design and manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped out by an operator’s single careless act. In addition to the design and configuration of equipment, hazard control and accident prevention are dependent upon the awareness, concern, judgement, and proper training of personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance, and storage of equipment.
SAFETY RULES ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED! (Safety Rules continued from previous page) Remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel on the ground. If this is not possible, then refuel such equipment on a trailer with a portable container, rather than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle. Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank opening at all times until fueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.
SAFETY RULES ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED! (Safety Rules continued from previous page) Installation of a grasscatcher assembly will reduce the stability and maneuverability of the Mow'n Machine when operating on sloping terrain. Do not tow a trailer over 200 lbs. Do not tow a trailer or add power unit ballast with a combined weight over 200 lbs. Too much weight can cause loss of traction or stability on a slope. It can also reduce parking brake ability.
SAFETY RULES ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED! (Safety Rules continued from previous page) STORAGE Tighten all bolts, nuts, and screws to torque chart specifications. Check that all cotter pins are installed securely to ensure equipment is in a safe condition before putting unit into service. Keep children and bystanders away from storage area. Use care to prevent battery acid from contacting skin. Make sure all safety decals are installed. Replace if damaged.
SAFETY & INSTRUCTIONAL DECALS ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED! Replace Immediately If Damaged! 1 – 72407 2 – 72404 3 – SERIAL NUMBER PLATE (Safety Decals continued on next page) MAN0999 (12/4/2012) Safety 9
SAFETY & INSTRUCTIONAL DECALS ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED! Replace Immediately If Damaged! (Safety Decals continued from previous page) 9 - 78643 4 – 72408 5 – 72406 6 – 70376 7 – 72405 BE CAREFUL! Use a clean, damp cloth to clean safety decals. Avoid spraying too close to decals when using a pressure washer; high-pressure water can enter through very small scratches or under edges of decals causing them to peel or come off.
OPERATION The operator is responsible for the safe operation of this Mow’n Machine. The operator must be properly trained. Operators should be familiar with the power unit, all attachments that will be used, and all safety practices before starting operation. Read the safety rules and safety decals on page 5 through page 10. tilt position. Release switch when deck reaches maximum tilt position. To lower the deck, push and hold toggle switch until it cycles to the desired cutting height.
A safety switch in the operator’s seat will cause the engine to stop if the operator leaves the seat with the PTO or steering handles engaged. The engine will also stop if the steering handles are moved from PARK if the deck jumper wire is not connected to the wire harness or the deck safety switch is disengaged. Make sure people and objects are clear of attachment and discharge area before engaging PTO. NOTICE ■ STARTING ENGINE DANGER Do not run engine indoors.
WARNING the steering handles are moved, the faster the machine will move. Watch for hidden hazards on the terrain during operation. Practice steering maneuvers at half throttle. STEERING HANDLE OPERATION WARNING Steering Handle Positions NOTICE ■ If you become confused during operation, return both handles to the center NEUTRAL position and the power unit will stop.
STOPPING ENGINE WEIGHT TRANSFER SYSTEM WARNING CAUTION Remove key and store in a secure location to prevent unauthorized persons from operating equipment. 1. Place steering handles in PARK (pivoted outward). 2. Move throttle to 1/3 setting. ■ When using weight transfer system, correct counterweight must be used to maintain stability. The weight transfer is designed to place an additional load on the drive wheels, providing additional traction. 3. Allow engine to idle for several minutes. 1.
OWNER PRE-OPERATION CHECK LIST (OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITY) ___ Check to be sure engine is free of dirt and debris. Pay particular attention to the cooling fins, governor parts and muffler. ___ Review and follow all safety rules and safety decal instructions on pages 5 through 10. ___ Do not allow riders. ___ Check that all safety decals are installed and in good condition. Replace if damaged. ___ Check to make sure all shields and guards are properly installed and in good condition.
OWNER SERVICE WARNING Before performing any service or maintenance, lower attachment to ground, turn off power unit engine, remove key, and disconnect battery ground cable (negative -). Before working underneath, read manual instructions, securely block up, and check stability. Secure blocking prevents equipment from dropping due to hydraulic leak down, hydraulic system failure, or mechanical component failure.
