Operating the Mower Safely (continued)

A Note to All Users

No list of warnings and cautions can be all-inclusive. If situations occur that are not covered by this manual, the operator must
apply common sense and operate this DR 3-POINT HITCH TRIMMER/MOWER in a safe manner. Contact us at
www.DRpower.com or call 1-800-DR-OWNER (376-9637) for assistance.

Be mindful of roll over hazards, changes in terrain, slopes, or wet conditions. Use care when backing up.

Stop the cutting cords when crossing gravel drives, walks, or roads.

Never, under any conditions, remove, bend, cut, fit, weld, or otherwise alter standard parts on the DR 3-POINT HITCH
TRIMMER/MOWER. This includes all shields and guards. Modifications to your machine could cause personal injuries and
property damage and will void your warranty.

If the cutting cords strike a foreign object or if your machine should start making an unusual noise or vibration, disengage
PTO, shut down the Tractor Engine, remove the Key, wait for all moving parts to come to a complete stop, disconnect the
PTO shaft from the Tractor, then wait five minutes before inspection. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble. Clean and
repair and/or replace damaged parts.

While using the DR 3-POINT HITCH TRIMMER/MOWER, do not hurry or take things for granted. When in doubt about the
equipment or your surroundings, stop the machine and take the time to look things over. Make sure that you have 100%
control of the Trimmer at all times.

Watch for traffic when mowing near roadways.

Use the machine only in daylight.

Be cautious when using your DR 3-POINT HITCH TRIMMER/MOWER around fencing, wires, ropes, and hoses. It is possible
that these and other debris can become wound around the Cord Head of the machine, potentially damaging the bearings or
injuring you.

Do not operate the DR 3-POINT HITCH TRIMMER/MOWER on slopes greater than is recommended in your Tractor manual.

Keep all nuts and bolts tight and keep the equipment in good operating condition.
