GENERAL INFORMATION  
The purpose of this manual is to assist you in operating  
detail. We reserve the right to redesign and change the  
machines as may be necessary without notification.  
and maintaining your vacuum system. Read it carefully.  
It furnishes information and instructions that will help  
you achieve years of dependable performance. These  
instructions have been compiled from extensive field  
experience and engineering data. Some information  
may be general in nature due to unknown and varying  
operating conditions. However, through experience  
and these instructions, you should be able to develop  
procedures suitable to your particular situation.  
Some illustrations in this manual show the  
mower with safety shields removed to provide a  
better view. The mower should never be operated  
with any safety shielding removed.  
Throughout this manual, references are made to right  
and left directions. These are determined by standing  
behind the equipment facing the direction of forward  
travel.  
The illustrations and data used in this manual were cur-  
rent at the time of printing but, due to possible inline  
production changes, your machine may vary slightly in

SAFETY RULES  
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!  
PREPARATION  
Safety is a primary concern in the design and  
manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our  
efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped  
out by an operator’s single careless act.  
Check that all hardware is properly installed.  
Always tighten to torque chart specifications  
unless instructed otherwise in this manual.  
In addition to the design and configuration of  
equipment, hazard control and accident preven-  
tion are dependent upon the awareness, con-  
cern, judgement, and proper training of  
personnel involved in the operation, transport,  
maintenance, and storage of equipment.  
Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing  
to avoid entanglement in moving parts. Wear  
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective  
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head.  
Make sure attachment is properly secured,  
adjusted, and in good operating condition.  
It has been said, “The best safety device is an  
informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be  
that kind of operator.  
Remove accumulated debris from this equip-  
ment, power unit, and engine to avoid fire hazard.  
Make sure all safety decals are installed.  
Replace if damaged. (See Safety Decals section for  
location.)

LEA EL INSTRUCTIVO!  
Si no lee Ingles, pida ayuda a  
alguien que si lo lea para que le  
traduzca las medidas de seguridad.  
Make sure shields and guards are properly  
installed and in good condition. Replace if dam-  
aged.  
Be sure either the discharge chute, mulching  
end cap, or complete vacuum attachment is  
installed and in good condition. Replace if dam-  
aged.  
TRAINING  
Safety instructions are important! Read all  
attachment and power unit manuals; follow all  
safety rules and safety decal information. (Replace-  
ment manuals and safety decals are available from  
your dealer. To locate your nearest dealer, check  
or in the United States and Canada call 1-800-319-  
6637.) Failure to follow instructions or safety rules  
can result in serious injury or death.  
Inspect and clear area of stones, branches, or  
other hard objects that might be thrown, causing  
injury or damage.  
OPERATION  
Keep bystanders away from equipment.  
If you do not understand any part of this manual  
Do not operate or transport equipment while  
and need assistance, see your dealer.  
under the influence of alcohol or drugs.  
Operate only in daylight or good artificial light.  
Know your controls and how to stop engine and  
attachment quickly in an emergency.  
Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from  
equipment while engine is running. Stay clear of all  
moving parts.  
Operators must be instructed in and be capable  
of the safe operation of the equipment, its attach-  
ments, and all controls. Do not allow anyone to  
operate this equipment without proper instruc-  
tions.  
Never allow riders on power unit or attachment.  
Watch for hidden hazards on the terrain during  
operation.  
Never allow children or untrained persons to  
Before making any adjustments on attachment,  
stop engine and engage parking brake. Never  
adjust or work on attachment while the power unit  
or attachment is running.  
operate equipment.  
Data indicates that those operators age 60 years  
and above are involved in a large percentage of  
riding mower-related injuries. Those operators  
should evaluate their ability to operate the riding  
mower safely enough to protect themselves and  
others from injury.  
Do not allow bystanders in the area when oper-  
ating, attaching, removing, assembling, or servic-  
ing equipment.

cable (negative -).  
Keep children out of the mowing area and under  
the watchful care of a responsible adult other than  
the operator.  
Do not modify or alter or permit anyone else to  
modify or alter the equipment or any of its compo-  
nents in any way.  
Be alert and turn machine off if a child enters  
the mowing area.  
Before attempting to unplug vacuum hoses, dis-  
engage PTO, stop power unit, and remove key.  
Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing  
to avoid entanglement in moving parts. Wear  
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective  
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head.  
Before performing any service or maintenance,  
lower attachment to ground, turn off power unit  
engine, remove key, and disconnect battery ground  
cable (negative -).  
Make sure attachment is properly secured,  
adjusted, and in good operating condition.  
Be sure either the discharge chute, mulching  
end cap, or complete vacuum attachment is  
installed and in good condition. Replace if dam-  
aged.  
Keep all persons away from operator control  
area while performing adjustments, service, or  
maintenance.  
Tighten all bolts, nuts and screws to torque  
chart specifications. Check that all cotter pins are  
installed securely to ensure equipment is in a safe  
condition before putting unit into service.  
TRANSPORTATION  
Use extra care when loading or unloading the  
machine onto a trailer or truck.  
Never allow riders on power unit or attachment.  
Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.  
Make sure all safety decals are installed.  
Replace if damaged. (See Safety Decals section for  
location.)  
Do not operate or transport equipment while  
under the influence of alcohol or drugs.  
Make sure shields and guards are properly  
installed and in good condition. Replace if dam-
