TWR-180 / TWR-120 12/04

When mowing across uneven areas such as road shoulders, ditch edges, and other uneven terrain,
position mower so that one support wheel is near the highest point to prevent blades from cutting into
gravel or dirt which can cause rapid blade wear and extremely severe shock loads on the drivetrain
resulting in rapid wear or damage to these components.

Blades contacting the ground may cause objects to

be thrown out from under the mower deck. Always avoid operating the mower at a height or position which may
cause the blades to contact the ground. Cutting into the berm or edge of the ditch will cause abnormal and
accelerated blade wear and possible blade component failure.

10.6 Shutting Down the Mower

To shut down the mower, first bring the tractor to a
complete stop. Then slow down the mower by
reducing the engine speed before disengaging the
PTO. Wait for all rotating motion to stop before
proceeding to drive or shut down the tractor.

Park the tractor on a level surface, place the
transmission in park or neutral and apply the parking
brake, lower the attached mower to the ground, shut
down the engine, remove the key, and wait for all
motion to come to a complete stop before exiting the
tractor.
