THE BEAST Tow Behind Mower

Operating Instructions

Mowing with THE BEAST

WARNING! Thoroughly inspect the area where you

plan to use the mower. Look for items such as stones,

sticks , wire, and other foreign objects. If struck by the

mower, these and other objects may become

projectiles that could lead to serious injury or death.

Clear area of all debris. Keep people and pets at a safe

distance.

WARNING! Do not operate the mower with defective

guards, shields, or without the safety devices securely

in place.

1. When the mower is in position on the area to be

mowed, start the engine and bring the engine to

operating speed.

2. With the other hand, SLOWLY push the blade

control lever forward to the ON position pausing for

10-15 seconds in the soft start range.

The Soft Start feature is critical to maintaining

belt, clutch, and engine life. NEVER “slam” the

blade on/off handle from off to on without

pausing an adequate time in the soft start range.

WARNING

WHEN WING MOWERS ARE IN USE, THE

BLADES MAY NOT STOP IN 7 SECONDS.

VISUAL INDICATION THAT THE BLADES ARE

TURNING IS PROVIDED ON BOTH WING

MOWERS. Do not approach the mower or

attempt any service until the after the visual

warning disks have completely stopped

turning. Slow moving blades can cause

serious injury or death.

WARNING

3. Walk back to the towing vehicle keeping clear of

the mower decks by at least three feet.

4. Slowly begin pulling the tow behind mower with the

vehicle. Speed can be increased as long as cut

quality is maintained and there is no engine rpm

reduction or belt slip. This is dependent on the

height, condition and type of grass. NOTE: The

pulley and blade system is designed so the belts

slip before damage to the engine can occur.

5. To stop the blades, pull the blade control lever back

to the OFF position.

WARNING! The blades may take up to seven (7)

seconds to stop turning OR more with the wing mowers

down. Observe the visual warning disks on the wing

mowers to indicate turning blades.

IMPORTANT! The mower belts are adjusted to

ensure the blades stop turning within seven

(7) seconds of releasing the blade control

lever. If you are making any belt adjustments

whatsoever, for your safety and the safety of

others around you, you must ensure the belts

are re-adjusted to achieve this design

specification.
