nect spark plug wire and place wire where

it cannot contact spark plug.

,_I_WARNING: Do not coast down a hill in

neutral, you may lose control of the riding

I. GENERAL OPERATION

• Read, understand, and follow all instruc-

tions on the machine and in the manual

before starting.

• Do not put hands or feet near rotating

parts or under the machine. Keep clear

of the discharge opening at all times.

• Only allow responsible adults, who are

familiar with the instructions, to operate

the machine.

• Clear the area of objects such as rocks,

toys, wire, etc., which could be picked up

and thrown by the blade.

• Be sure the area is clear of bystanders

before operating. Stop machine if anyone

enters the area.

• Never carry passengers.

• Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely

necessary. Always look down and behind

before and while backing.

• Never direct discharged material toward

anyone. Avoid discharging material

against a wall or obstruction. Material may

ricochet back toward the operator. Stop the

blade when crossing gravel surfaces.

• Do not operate machine withoutthe entire

grass catcher, discharge chute, or other

safety devices in place and working.

• Slow down before turning.

• Never leave a running machine unat-

tended. Always turn off blade, set park-

ing brake, stop engine, and remove keys

before dismounting.

• Disengage blade when not mowing. Shut

off engine and wait for all parts to come

to a complete stop before cleaning the

machine, removing the grass catcher, or

unclogging the discharge chute.

• Operate machine only in daylight or good

artificial light.

• Do not operate the machine while under

the influence of alcohol or drugs.

• Watch for traffic when operating near or

crossing roadways.

• Use extra care when loading or unloading

the machine into a trailer or truck.

• Always wear eye protection when operat-

ing machine.

• Data indicates that operators, age 60

years and above, are involved in a large

percentage of riding mower-related inju-

ries. These operators should evaluate

their ability to operate the riding mower

safely enough to protect themselves and

others from serious injury.

• Keep machine free of grass , leaves or

other debris build-up 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.

Ii. SLOPE OPERATION

Slopes are a major factor related to loss of

control and tip-over accidents, which can

result in severe injury or death. Operation

on all slopes requires extra caution. If you

cannot back up the slope or if you feel uneasy

on it, do not mow it.

• Mow up and down slopes (15 ° Max), not

across.

• Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or

other hidden objects. Uneven terrain could

overturn the machine. Tall grass can hide

obstacles.

• Choose a low ground speed so that you

will not have to stop or shift while on the

slope.

• Do not mow on wet grass. Tires may lose

traction.

• Always keep the machine in gear when

going down slopes. Do not shift to neutral

and coast downhill.

• If machine stops while going uphill,

disengage blade, shift into reverse and

back down slowly.

• Avoid starting, stopping, or turning on a

slope. Ifthe tires lose traction, disengage

the blade and proceed slowly straight down

the slope.

• Keep all movement on the slopes slow and

gradual. Do not make sudden changes

in speed or direction, which could cause

the machine to roll over.

• Use extra care while operating machine

with grass catchers or other attachments;

they can affect the stability of the machine.

• Do no use on steep slopes.

• Do not try to stabilize the machine by

putting your foot on the ground.

• Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or

embankments. The machine could sud-

denly roll over if a wheel is over the edge

or if the edge caves in.

Iii. CHILDREN

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator

is not alert to the presence of children.

Children are often attracted to the machine

and the mowing activity. Never assume

that children will remain where you last

saw them.

• Keep children out ofthe mowing area and

in the watchful care of a responsible adult

other than the operator.

• Be alert and turn machine off if a child

enters the area.

• Before and while backing, look behind and

down for small children.

• Never carry children, even with the blade

shut off. They may fall off and be seriously

injured or interfere with safe machine

operation. Children who have been given

rides in the past may suddenly appear in

the mowing area for another ride and be run

over or backed over by the machine.

• Never allow children to operate the ma-

chine.

• Use extra care when approaching blind

corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects

that may block your view of a child.

IV. SERVICE

SAFE HANDLING OF GASOLINE

To avoid personal injury or property dam-

age, use extreme care in handling gasoline.

Gasoline is extremely flammable and the

vapors are explosive.

• Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes,

and other sources of ignition.

• Use only approved gasoline container.

• Never remove gas cap or add fuel with

the engine running. Allow engine to cool

before refueling.

• Never fue! the machine indoors.

• Never store the machine orfue! container

where there is an open flame, spark, or

pilot light such as on a water heater or

other appliances.

• Never fill containers inside a vehicle or

on a truck or trailer bed with plastic liner.

Always place containers on the ground

away from your vehicle when filling.

• Removegas-powered equipmentfromthe

truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground.

If this is not possible, then refuel such

equipment with a portable container, rather

than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.

• Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim

of the fuel tank or container opening at

all times until fueling is complete. Do not

use a nozzle lock-open device.

• Iffue! is spilled on clothing, change clothing

immediately.

• Never overfill fuel tank. Replace gas cap

and tighten securely.

GENERALSERVICE

• Never operate machine in a closed area.

• Keep all nuts and bolts tight to be sure the

equipment is in safe working condition.

• Never tamper with safety devices. Check

their proper operation regularly.

• Keep machine free of grass, leaves, or

other debris build-up. Clean oil or fuel spill-

age and remove any fuel-soaked debris.

Allow 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.

• Check grass catcher components and the

discharge chute frequently and replace

with manufacturer's recommended parts,

when necessary.
