General Safety Instructions
The GROUNDSMASTER 4100-D was tested and certi-
fied by TORO for compliance with existing safety stan-
dards and specifications. Although hazard control and
accident prevention partially are dependent upon the
design and configuration of the machine, these factors
are also dependent upon the awareness, concern, and
proper training of the personnel involved in the opera-
tion, transport, maintenance, and storage of the ma-
chine. Improper use or maintenance of the machine can
result in injury or death. To reduce the potential for injury
or death, comply with the following safety instructions.
