SAFETY GUIDELINES FOR USE OF PRODUCT
*The most important information is knowing how to stop your riding mower or lawn tractor, read your equipment’s owner’s manual
for horse power and towing weights
*With increased towing weight, your stopping distance increases also
*Do not tow the roller up or down steep ditches or hills. Be extremely cautious around steep grades
*Watch for holes, uneven terrain and other possible obstacles
*Inspect roller and all hardware periodically. Be sure all parts are secure before and during operation
*Never carry any passengers with you
*Do not operate lawn roller on slopes greater than 10 - 12 degrees
USING YOUR LAWN ROLLER
*Remove the expansion plug by loosening the wing nut.
*Fill your roller with water or sand to recommended weight for your towing equipment (mower or lawn tractor). DO NOT GO
OVER YOUR TOWING EQUIPMENT’S WEIGHT LIMIT. Failure to do so can result in damage to the towing equipment and/or
personal injury.
*Replace the expansion plug and tighten the wing nut. Make sure the plug is tight enough to stop any leakage.
*Your lawn should be moist for best rolling conditions. Excessive water or muddy conditions are not recommended.
*Keep your mower or lawn tractor at a safe and steady speed. 3 - 4 MPH is a good speed for proper operation.
*Damage to your mower, lawn tractor and/or personal injury can occur if you start or stop the roller (filled) abruptly.
*When finished using the roller, drain and let the interior fully dry. Never leave water in the lawn roller during cold weather. Freezing
can occur, damaging the welded seams causing leaks and/or structural failure.
MAINTENANCE
*Always check all the hardware before use. Make sure all hardware and components are tight and secure.
*Always keep moving joints lubricated. Lubricate the Clevis Assembly and Axle/Bearings when needed.
*Keeping the roller clean and dry will prolong the unit’s life.
