cial light.
B. Watch for holes or other hidden hazards.

sudden stops and starts.

keep forward speed slow and to maintain control of
the machine.

terrain angles, ricochets, or improperly positioned
guards can lead to thrown object injuries. Do not resume
mowing until area is cleared.

25. Whenever machine is left unattended, make sure
cutting units are fully raised and reels are not spinning,
key is removed from ignition switch and parking brake
is set.
