-Equip the Tractor with a fire extinguisher in an accessible location.
-Do Not operate the Mower on a Tractor with an underframe exhaust.
-Do Not smoke or have an open flame near the Mower and Tractor.
-Do Not drive into burning debris or freshly burnt areas.
-Ensure slip clutches are properly adjusted to prevent excessive slippage
and plate heating.
-Never allow clippings or debris to collect near drivelines, slip clutches,
and gearboxes. Periodically shut down the Tractor and Mower and clean
clippings and collected debris from the mower deck.

the Mower's rated capacity or to cut any type of non-vegetative
material. Only operate this Mower on a properly sized and equipped
Tractor. Operating this Mower in an application for which it is not
designed and/or operating the Mower with the wrong size Tractor can
cause Mower component damage and equipment failure resulting in
possible serious injury or death.
DANGER!
Always disconnect the main PTO Driveline from the Tractor before
performing service on the Mower. Never work on the Mower with the

objects thrown from the Blades.
