SAFETY
WARNING!
Use extreme caution when loading the
machine into a truck or trailer using
ramps. There is the possibility of
serious injury or death if the machine
falls off the ramps.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The parking brake is not sufficient to lock the
machine in place during transport. Ensure that
the machine is well fastened to the transport
vehicle. Always reverse the machine onto the
transport vehicle to avoid tipping it over.
WARNING!
This mower is equipped with an
internal combustion engine and
should not be used on or near any
unimproved forested, bush covered
or grassy lands unless the engine's
system is equipped with a spark
arrestor meeting applicable local or
state laws (if any).
WARNING!
Escaping hydraulic oil under pressure
can have sufficient force to penetrate
the skin, causing serious injury.
If injured by escaping fluid, see a
doctor at once. Serious infection
or reaction can develop if proper
medical treatment is not administered
immediately.
