OPERATION
ATTACHMENTS
This
unit can
use many
different
attachments.
This
unit can pull
attachments
like a lawn sweeper,
a lawn aerator, a hopper spreader,
or a small trailer. This unit can not use attachments
that engage
the
ground
like a plow, a disk harrow,
or a cultivator.
For
all pull-behind
attachments
or trailers,
the maximum
gross
weight
is 200 pounds.
Gross weight
is the weight
of the attachment
or trailer
and any load that might be on or in it.
Do not operate
on a slope that is greater
than
10 degrees
when
using a pull-behind
attachment
or trailer.
We have included
a slope
guide in this book to help you determine
the slope on which
you will
be operating
your unit. Never allow someone
to stand or ride on or
in an attachment
or trailer.
