Safe Operating Practices
Training
What is LPG? LPG stands for liquefied petroleum
gas and is more commonly called propane. LPG is
a liquid fuel that is stored in a tank under pressure.
Before the liquid leaves the tank, it is converted into
a vapor. Since LPG is stored as both liquid and gas,
it may leak from joints or connections that are not
sealed properly. LPG becomes flammable when it is
mixed with air.
The LPG information in this Operator’s manual is
provided only as a guide. Consult the NFPA 58:
Liquefied Petroleum Gas Code, 2008 Edition for
additional safety information. This National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA) code pertains to the
handling, storing, transporting, and usage of LPG.
•
Read the Operator’s Manual and other training
material. If the operator(s) or mechanic(s) can
not read English it is the owner’s responsibility to
explain this material to them.
•
Become familiar with the safe operation of the
equipment, operator controls, and safety signs.
•
All operators and mechanics should be trained.
The owner is responsible for training the users.
•
Never let children or untrained people operate
or service the equipment. Local regulations may
restrict the age of the operator.
•
Only adults and mature teenagers should operate
a mower, and even mature teenagers should have
adult supervision. Be sure a teenager:
1. has read and understands the Operator’s
Manual and recognizes the risks involved;
2. is sufficiently mature to use caution; and
3. is of sufficient size and weight to operate
the controls comfortably and to manage the
mower without taking risks.
•
The owner/user can prevent and is responsible
for accidents or injuries occurring to himself or
herself, other people or property.
Preparation
•
Evaluate the terrain to determine what accessories
and attachments are needed to properly and
safely perform the job. Only use accessories and
attachments approved by Exmark.
•
Wear appropriate clothing including safety glasses,
substantial footwear, long trousers, and hearing
protection. Do Not operate when barefoot or
when wearing open sandals. Long hair, loose
clothing or jewelry may get tangled in moving
parts.
