INTRODUCTION
Your RHINO FM mower is designed for light-duty cutting such as lawn maintenance plus small weed and grass
control. With a reasonable amount of preventive maintenance, your Mower will provide years of dependable
service.
DANGER NEVER ALLOW CHILDREN TO OPERATE, RIDE ON, OR COME CLOSE
TO MOWER OR TRACTOR. Usually, 15-16 year-old children who are mature
and responsible can operate the mower with reasonable safety if they have
read Operator's Manual, been trained in safe operation of the machine, and
are physically large and strong enough to reach and operate controls easily.
For Non-Agricultural use, OSHA, ASAE, SAE, and ANSI standards require the
use of Chain Guards, Deflectors, or Solid Skirts at all times. The Mower
manufacturer strongly recommends the use of Chain Guards or Solid Skirts for
Agricultural purposes as well, to reduce the risk of property damage, serious
bodily injury, or even death from objects thrown out by or from contact with the
Cutting Blades.
At least 20% of the tractor’s weight must be on the front tires with the Mower
lifted to provide adequate traction for safe steering under good conditions.
Slow down on hills, rough terrain, and curves.
DANGER
Front and rear and left and right are determined by the normal direction of travel, the same as driving an
automobile.
