securely resting at ground level or on blocks.
Place a block in front of and behind the tires to
prevent the mower from moving. Keep hands
and feet out from under the mower and clear of
pinch points between the tractor and mower.
Avoid contact with hot surfaces including hydraulic oil tanks, pumps, motors, valves and
hose connections. Relieve hydraulic pressure before performing maintenance or repairs.
Use gloves and eye protection when servicing hot components. Contact with a hot surface
or fluid can cause serious injury from burns or scalding.
