In order to reduce accidents and enhance the safe operation of mowers, Alamo Group Ag Division, in cooperation with other industry manufacturers has developed the AEM/FEMA Industrial and Agricultural Mower Safety Practices video and guide book. The video will familiarize and instruct mower-tractor operators in safe practices when using industrial and agricultural mowing equipment.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS Rhino 2160 boom mowers are manufactured with quality material by skilled workers. The boom is designed to attach to a tractor and operate the rotary head to cut grass and weeds. The boom and head are equipped with protective deflectors and/or chain guards to prevent objects being thrown from the mower by the blades, however, no shielding is 100% effective.

ON-OFF Switch (Mower Valve) - To operate the mower, pull the switch while the tractor is running.
