9. Keep all movement on slopes slow and
gradual. Do not make sudden changes in speed
or direction, which could cause the machine to
roll over.
10. Use extra care while operating machine with
additional or other attachments; they can affect
the stability of the machine. Do not use on
steep slopes.
11. Do not try to stabilize the machine by
putting your foot on the ground.
12. Do not work near drop-offs, ditches or
embankments. The machine could suddenly roll
over if a wheel goes over the edge or if the edge
caves in.
Children
1. Keep children out of the working area and
under the watchful care of a responsible adult -
other than the operator.
2. Be alert and turn machine off if a child enters
the area.
3. Before and while backing, look behind and
down for small children.
4. Never carry children, even with the
attachment shut off. They may fall off and be
seriously injured or interfere with safe machine
operation. Children who have been given rides
in the past may suddenly appear around the unit
for another ride and be run over or backed over
by the machine.
5. Never allow children to operate the machine!
6. Use extreme care when approaching blind
corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may
block your view of a child.

designed for towing. Do not attach towed
equipment except at the hitch point.
2. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendation
for weight limits for towed equipment and towing
on slopes.
3. Never allow children or others in or on towed
equipment.
4. On slopes, the weight of the towed
equipment may cause loss of traction and loss
of control.
5. Travel slowly and allow extra distance for
stopping.
General Service

WARNING:
Tragic accidents can occur if the

are often attracted to the
machine and the attachment.
Never assume that children will
remain there - the last time you
saw them.
