12 OPERATING THE MOWER

OPERATING MOWER

To avoid serious injury or death:
A Do not operate the mower without the
discharge deflector properly in place.
To avoid personal injury:
A Clear the work area of objects which might be
picked up and thrown.
A Do not direct the opening of the deflector at
bystanders or animals. Ejected objects may
cause injury. Plan your mowing carefully
before starting operations.
A Keep bystanders and animals away from the
mowing area.
A Be sure to disengage the PTO clutch before
starting the engine.
1. Keep the engine running at full throttle for best results.
Control travel speed by the speed control pedal or
lever.
2. During heavy duty use, operate the machine at a
slower ground speed or go over the area twice.
3. Keep the mower deck in the fully raised position when
the mower is disengaged.
4. The mower will not cut cleanly if the ground speed is
too high or if the blade speed drops due to an
overload.
A To prevent the engine from overheating, keep the
radiator and the radiator net clean.
