Moving Parts - Simplicity Regent Serie Manual Del Operador

This equipment has many moving parts that can injure you or someone else. However, if
you are seated in the seat properly, and follow all the rules in this book, the unit is safe to
operate.
The mower deck has spinning mower blades that can amputate hands and feet. Do not
allow anyone near the equipment while it is running!
To help you, the operator, use this equipment safely, it is equipped with an operator-present
safety system. Do NOT attempt to alter or bypass the system. See your dealer immediately
if the system does not pass all the safety interlock system tests found in this manual.
Fuel and Maintenance
Gasoline is extremely flammable. Its vapors are also extremely flammable and can
travel to distant ignition sources. Gasoline must only be used as a fuel, not as a
solvent or cleaner. It should never be stored any place where its vapors can build up
or travel to an ignition source like a pilot light. Fuel belongs in an approved, plastic,
sealed gas can, or in the tractor fuel tank with the cap securely closed. Spilled fuel
needs to be cleaned up immediately.
Proper maintenance is critical to the safety and performance of your unit. Be sure to
perform the maintenance procedures listed in this manual, especially periodically
testing the safety system.
You could be seriously injured or even killed if you use this unit on too steep an
incline. Using the unit on a slope that is too steep or where you don't have
adequate traction can cause you to lose control or roll over.
A good rule of thumb is to not operate on any slope you cannot back up (in 2-
wheel drive mode). You should not operate on inclines with a slope greater than
a 3.5 foot rise over a 20 foot length. Always drive up and down slopes: never
cross the face.
Also note that the surface you are driving on can greatly impact stability and
control. Wet grass or icy pavement can seriously affect your ability to control the
unit.
If you feel unsure about operating the unit on an incline, don't do it. It's not worth
the risk.

Do not operate this unit without the entire grass catcher or discharge guard (deflector)
in place.
Also, do not allow anyone in the area while the unit is running! If someone does enter
the area, shut the unit off immediately until they leave.
