SAFETY

Periodically inspect all moving parts for wear and replace when

necessary with authorized service parts. Look for loose fasteners, worn

or broken parts, and leaky or loose fittings. Make sure all pins have

cotter pins and washers. Serious injury may occur from not maintaining

this machine in good working order.

(SG-21)

Do Not fill gasoline tank while engine is running. Refuel only after engine has cooled down.

If gasoline is spilled, move machine away from the area of the spill and avoid creating any

source of ignition until the gasoline has evaporated.

(SG-28)

Perform service, repairs and lubrication according to the maintenance section. Ensure the

unit is properly lubricated as specified in the lubrication schedule and all bolts and nuts are

properly torqued. Failure to properly service, repair and maintain this Implement in good operating condition

could cause component failure and possible serious injury or even death.

(SG-35)

Use caution and wear protective gloves when handling sharp objects such as blades,

knives, and other cutting edges. Be alert to worn component surfaces which have sharp

edges. Sharp surfaces can inflict severe laceration injuries if proper hand protection is not worn.
