Safety Labels No Text Read Operator’s Manual Avoid Injury From Tipping MXAL42776—UN—09APR13 MXAL42779—UN—09APR13 • This operator’s manual contains important information necessary for safe machine operation. • Carefully read operator’s manual before operating machine. Observe all safety rules to avoid accidents. • Do not drive where machine could slip, tip, or rollover. • In some configurations, do not drive or operate on a slope of more than 10 degrees.
Safety Safety • Make sure spark plug, muffler, fuel cap and air cleaner are in place before starting the engine. • Be sure all drives are in neutral and parking brake is locked before starting engine. Only start engine from the operator’s position. • Do not change the engine governor settings or overspeed the engine. Operating the engine at excessive speed can increase the hazard of personal injury. • If you hit an object or if abnormal vibration occurs, stop the machine and inspect it.
Safety 4. Lock the park brake. • Never carry children on a machine or attachment, even with the blades off. Do not tow children in a cart or trailer. They can fall off and be seriously injured or interfere with safe machine operation. • Never use the machine as a recreational vehicle or to entertain children. • Never allow children or an untrained person operate the machine. Instruct all operators not to give children a ride on the machine or in an attachment.
Safety • Avoid starting, stopping or turning on a slope. If the tires lose traction, disengage the PTO and proceed slowly, straight down the slope. • Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual. Do not make sudden changes in speed or direction, which could cause the ride-on mower to roll over.
Safety Operating Near Hazards • Excessive towed load can cause loss of traction and loss of control on slopes. Reduce towed weight when operating on slopes. • Never allow children or others in or on towed equipment. • Use only approved hitches. Tow only with a machine that has a hitch designed for towing. Do not attach towed equipment except at the approved hitch point. • Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for weight limits for towed equipment and towing on slopes.
Safety • Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper operation regularly. • Keep machine free of grass, leaves or other debris build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage and remove any fuel-soaked debris. Allow the machine to cool before storing. • If you strike a foreign object, stop and inspect the machine. Repair, if necessary, before restarting. • Never make any adjustments or repairs with the engine running. Wait for all movement to stop on machine before adjusting, cleaning or repairing.
Machine Cleanout Handling Fuel Safely • Always maintain the correct tire pressure. Do not inflate the tires above the recommended pressure. Never weld or heat a wheel and tire assembly. The heat can cause an increase in air pressure resulting in a tire explosion. Welding can structurally weaken or deform the wheel. • When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and extension hose long enough to allow you to stand to one side and NOT in front of or over the tire assembly.
