General Safety Instructions
Groundsmaster 7200 and 7210 machines meet or ex-
ceed safety standard specifications as identified in the
Operator’s Manual. Although hazard control and acci-
dent prevention are dependent partially upon the design
and configuration of the machine, these factors are also
dependent upon the awareness, concern and proper
training of the personnel involved in the operation, trans-
port, maintenance and storage of the machine. Improp-
er use or maintenance by the operator or owner of the
machine can result in injury. To reduce the potential for
any injury, comply with the following safety instructions
as well as information found in the Operator’s Manual.
WARNING
To reduce the potential for injury or death,
comply with the following safety instructions.
Supervisor’s Responsibilities
1. Make sure operators are thoroughly trained and fa-
miliar with the Operator’s Manual, Operator Training
DVD and all of the operating and safety decals on the
machine.
2. Be sure to establish your own special procedures
and work rules for unusual operating conditions (e.g.
slopes too steep for machine operation). Survey mow-
ing site completely to determine which hills can be
operated on safely. When performing this site survey,
always use common sense and take into consideration
the turf condition and the rollover risk. To perform a site
survey, follow the procedure outlined in the Operator’s
Manual.
