PREPARATION READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING MOWER Know your controls and how to stop tractor engine and mower quickly in an emergency. READ THIS OPERATOR’S MANUAL AND THE MANUAL PROVIDED WITH YOUR TRACTOR. To avoid accident or injury, do not allow anyone to operate this equipment without proper instructions.

OPERATIONAL SAFETY Continued..Front tractor weights or front tire ballast should be used to enhance front end stability on small tractors. NEVER operate mower in raised position. Check to make sure PTO is properly connected and that the driveline is correct to prevent bottoming out or pulling apart during the full lift range of the hitch.
MAINTENANCE SAFETY Support the mower with safety stands or blocks before working beneath it. Follow good shop practices: A. Keep service area clean and dry. B. Be sure electrical outlets and tools are properly grounded. C. Use adequate light for the job at hand.
MOWER SAFETY DECALS Keep all safety decals and signs clean and legible at all times. Replace safety decals and signs that are missing or have become illegible. (Contact Gearmore at 909.548.4848 for free replacement safety decals.) Page 8...
Check blades to make sure they are securely fastened. When replacing or grinding blades, both blades must be replaced or re-ground at the same time to maintain the proper balance in the mower. Gearmore mowers are equipped with special heat-treated alloy steel blades. Use only Gearmore blades, substitutes may be dangerous.
TROUBLESHOOTING Excessive vibration Blades are not free to swing. Check bushings and movements of blades. Blades are out of balance. Check blades for damage or replace. Unusual noise Loose blade bolts or worn bushings. Tighten blade bolts, check bushings for wear and change as needed.
