Connecting & Disconnecting Implement Safety Instructions & Practices
Each Rear Wheel must have a minimum of 1500 pound contact with the
surface to prevent lateral instability and possible tip-over which could
result in serious bodily injury or even death. Widen the wheel tread and add weights if
needed. Refer to the mounting instructions or call Customer Service if you need
assistance with Counterweight Procedure.
Do Not attempt to raise or lower the boom or mower head unless the Implement is securely
attached to the Tractor. The Implement could tip over and cause equipment damage and
possible serious injury or death. Do Not use the boom controls to assist in installing the
implement on the tractor. Raise or Lower the boom and mower head only while seated in
the Tractor operator's seat with the seat belt securely fastened. Inadvertent contact with
the boom controls could allow a component to fall. A sudden or inadvertent fall by any of
these components could cause serious injury or even death.

Equipment Operation Safety Instructions and Practices

Never leave the Tractor and Implement unattended while the Implement is in the lifted
position. Accidental operation of lifting lever or a hydraulic failure may cause sudden drop
of unit with injury or death by crushing. To properly park the implement when disconnecting
it from the tractor, lower the stand and put the retaining pin securely in place, or put a secure
support under the A-Frame. Lower the implement carefully to the ground. Do not put hands
or feet under lifted components.
This Implement may be wider than the Tractor. Be careful when operating or transporting
this equipment to prevent the Implement from running into or striking sign posts, guard rails,
concrete abutments or other solid objects. Such an impact could cause the Implement and
Tractor to pivot violently resulting in loss of steering control, serious injury, or even death.
Never allow the Implement to contact obstacles.
