Before any operation of tractor and mower, the user should read and
understand the safety and operating instructions for both the tractor and
the mower. The user should also be familiar with the location and
functions of the units instruments and controls. Being familiar with the
machine and it’s controls will increase efficiency and reduce possibility of
serious injury or damage to the unit. The operator should work slowly and carefully until
he feels comfortable with the machine. Speed and skill will be attained much easier if
the necessary time is spent to familiarize yourself with the machine and its operations.
Since tractor makes and models vary, we recommend reading and following the
operators manual provided by the manufacturer pertaining to your particular unit.
WARNING!
Extreme care should be taken when operating near loose objects such
as gravel, rocks, wire, and other debris. Inspect the area before
mowing. Foreign objects should be removed from the site to prevent
machine damage and/or bodily injury or even death. Any objects that
cannot be removed must be clearly marked and carefully avoided by
the operator. Stop mowing immediately if blades strike a foreign
object. Repair all damage and make certain rotor or blade carrier is
balanced before resuming mowing.
(SGM-5)
WARNING! Many varied objects, such as wire, cable, rope, or chains, can become
entangled in the operating parts of the mower head. These items could
then swing outside the housing at greater velocities than the blades. Such
a situation is extremely hazardous and could result in serious injury or
even death. Inspect the cutting area for such objects before mowing.
Remove any like object from the site. Never allow the cutting blades to
contact such items.
