WARNING
WARNING
1.17 Fuel Safety
Handle gasoline with care – it is highly flammable. Do not smoke while
handling gasoline. Use an approved gasoline container. Never remove
the fuel cap or add gasoline to a running or hot engine or an engine that
has not been allowed to cool for several minutes after running. Never fill
the tank indoors and always clean up spilled gas. NEVER store the
equipment with gasoline in the tank inside a building where fumes may
reach an open flame or spark. Allow the engine to cool before storing in
any enclosure.
1.18 Hydraulic Safety
Keep body and hands away from pin holes or fittings that eject hydraulic fluid under high pressure. Use
paper or cardboard and not hands to search for leaks. Hydraulic fluid escape under high pressure may have
sufficient force to penetrate skin and cause serious injury. If foreign fluid is injected into the skin, it must be
surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gangrene may result.
Seek medical attention immediately. Make sure all hydraulic fluid connections are tight and all hydraulic
hoses and lines are in good condition before starting your Wright mower. Hydraulic fluid is under high
pressure. If you need service on your hydraulic system, please see your authorized Wright dealer.
1.19 Using a Spark Arrester
The engine in this machine is not equipped with a spark arrester muffler. It is in violation of California Public
Resources Code Section 4442 to use or operate the engine on or near any forest-covered, brush-covered, or
grass covered land unless the exhaust system is equipped with a spark arrester meeting any applicable local
or state laws. Other states or federal area may have similar laws.
1.20 Replacement Parts
Use of parts other than specified parts supplied by Wright Manufacturing, Inc. may compromise the safe use
of the mower, are not recommended and their use could void the warranty. Always check with your Dealer
or the Wright Mfg website,
www.wrightmfg.com for the Illustrated Parts List for your equipment.
Wright is fully concerned with your safety. Please read the above repeatedly until you fully
understand the methods to promote the safest operation possible.
