3 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
3.6

LEAVING THE DRIVING POSITION

• Park the machine on level ground.
• Before leaving the driving position, stop the
engine and make sure all moving parts are
stationary. Apply brakes and disengage all
drives. Remove the starter key.
3.7

SLOPES

TAKE EXTRA CARE WHEN WORKING ON
SLOPES
• Local undulations and sinkage will change the
general slope. Avoid ground conditions which
can cause the machine to slide.
• Keep machine speeds low on slopes and
during tight turns.
• Remember there is no such thing as a "safe"
slope.
• Travel on grass slopes requires particular
care.
3.8

BLOCKED CUTTING CYLINDERS

• Stop the engine and make sure all moving
parts are stationary.
• Apply brakes and disengage all drives.
• Release blockages with care. Keep all parts
of the body away from the cutting edge.
Beware of energy in the drive which can
cause rotation when the blockage is released.
• Keep other people away from the cutting units
as rotation of one cylinder can cause the
others to rotate.
3.9 ADJUSTMENTS, LUBRICATION AND
MAINTENANCE
• Stop the engine and make sure all moving
parts are stationary.
• Apply brakes and disengage all drives.
• Read all the appropriate servicing instructions.
• Use only the replacement parts supplied by
the original manufacturer.
• When adjusting the cutting cylinders take
care not to get hands and feet trapped when
rotating cylinders.
• Make sure that other people are not touching
any cutting units, as rotation of one cylinder
can cause the others to rotate.
• To reduce the fire hazard, keep the engine,
silencer and battery compartments free of
grass, leaves or excessive grease.
• Replace worn or damaged parts for safety.
• When working underneath lifted parts or
machines, make sure adequate support Is
provided.
• Do not dismantle the machine without
releasing or restraining forces which can
cause parts to move suddenly.
