GENERAL OPERATION  \n• Read, understand,andfollowall instructions inthe manual and on the machine before starting.  \n• Only allow responsible adults, who are familiar with the instructions, to operate the machine.  \n• Clear the area of objects such as rocks, toys, wire, etc. , which could be picked up and thrown by the blade.  \n• Be sure the area is clear of other people before mowing. Stop machine if anyone enters the area.  \n• Never carry passengers.  \n• Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary. Always look down and behind before and while backing.  \n• Beawareofthe mowerdischargedirectionanddonotpoint it at anyone. Do not operate the mower without either the entire grass catcher or the guard in place.  \n• Slowdown before turning.  \n• Never leave a running machine unattended. Always turnoff blades, set parking brake, stop engine, and remove keys before dismounting.  \n• Turnoff blades when not mowing.  \n• Stopenginebefore removinggrasscatcheror unclogging chute.  \n• Mow only in daylight or good artificial light.  \n• Do not operate the machine while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.  \n• Watch for traffic when operating near or crossing roadways.  \n• Useextracarewhenloadingor unloadingthemachineinto a trailer or truck.  \n• Dataindicatesthatoperators,age60yearsandabove,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.  \n• 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 build-up to occur. Clean any oil or fuel spillage before operating or storing the machine. Allow machine to cool before storage.  \nII. SLOPE OPERATION  \nSlopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control and tipover 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.  \nDO:  \n• Mow up and down slopes, not across.  \n• Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc.  \n• Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Uneven terrain could overturn the machine. Tall grass can hide obstacles.  \n• Use slow speed. Choose a low gear so that you will not have to stop or shift while on the slope.  \n• Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for wheel weights or counterweights to improve stability.  \n• Use extra care with grass catchersorother attachments. These can change the stability of the machine.  \n• Keep all movement on the slopes slow and gradual. Do not make sudden changes in speed or direction.  \n• Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose traction, disengage the blades and proceed slowly straight down the slope.  \nDO NOT:  \n• Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, turn slowly and gradually downhill, if possible.  \n• Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. The mower could suddenly turnover ifa wheel is over the edge of a cliff or ditch, or if an edge caves in.  \n• Do not mowon wet grass. Reduced traction could cause sliding.  \n• Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting your foot on theground.  \n• Do not use grass catcher on steep slopes.  \nIII. CHILDREN  \nTragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted to the machineandthemowingactivity. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.  \n• Keep children out of the mowing area and under the watchful care of another responsible adult.  \n• Be alert and turn machine off if children enter the area.  \n• Be","cbCaip7FFsQBIumb","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaip7FFsQBIumb","pdf",1625416,44,"English","# SAFETY RULES\n## Safe Operation Practices for Ride-On Mowers\n## I.
