Mow only in conditions where you have clear visibility in daylight or with adequate artificial
lighting. Never mow in darkness or foggy conditions where you cannot clearly see at least
300 feet (90 m) in front and to the sides of the tractor and mower. Make sure that you can
clearly see and identify passersby, steep slopes, ditches, drop-offs, overhead obstructions,
power lines, debris and foreign objects. If you are unable to clearly see these type of items
discontinue mowing.
If a material blockage occurs in the inlet or exhaust areas of the mower, SHUT DOWN
TRACTOR ENGINE, disengage the PTO and wait for all rotating motion to stop. Place the
tractor in park position, engage the parking brake and remove the key before leaving the
operator's seat. Clear the blockage before proceeding with mowing. Be sure to keep feet
and hands clear of the mower blades. If you raise the mower or mower wing to access the
blockage, engage the wing lock up latch and securely block up the mower before placing
and parts of the body underneath the mower.
Avoid mowing in reverse direction when possible.
persons behind the mower and use extreme care when maneuvering in reverse. Mow only
at a slow ground speed where you can safely operate and control the tractor and mower.
Never mow an area that you have not inspected and removed debris or foreign material.
(SGM-08)
Only mow where you have good visibility and can clearly see the ground and surrounding
area that you are working in. Reduce speed when vision of the area is reduced or if you are
avoiding foreign debris.
When you get to the end of a pass, slightly raise the
mower (2-4") before turning. Never raise the mower
entirely while the blades are turning. If the mower
must be raised higher than 12" from ground level,
disengage the tractor PTO and wait for all mower
rotation to come to a complete stop before
proceeding to raise the mower.
