During Operation Safety (continued)
Towing Safety
• Do not attach towed equipment except at the hitch point.
• Do not use the machine as a towing vehicle unless it has a hitch installed.
• Do not exceed the maximum gross towing weight.
• Never allow children or others near the towed equipment.
• On slopes, the weight of the towed equipment may cause loss of traction, increased risk
of rollover, and loss of control. Reduce the towed weight and slow down.
• The stopping distance may increase with the weight of a towed load. Travel slowly and
allow extra distance to stop.
• Make wide turns to keep the attachment clear of the machine.

Note:
Do not engage the starter for more than 5 seconds at a time; otherwise, you can
damage the starter motor. If the engine fails to start, wait 1 minute before operating
the engine starter again.
