GXAL42107-UN-04MAR13


This machine is equipped with an indicator light (A) and audible warning alarm (B) to notify the operator when the grass collection hopper becomes full during mowing operation. When the light illuminates and the alarm sounds:

  1. Push mower engagement switch (C) or pull back lever (E) (115R) to stop mower blades.

  2. CAUTION: Do not attempt to unplug attachment with machine running.

    • Rotating blades are dangerous. Shut off the engine and remove the key before getting off the seat to inspect the machine and attachment.
    • Thrown objects can cause serious injury. Make sure all machine parts are stopped before raising hopper top or removing chutes.

    NOTE: Mower engagement operation will stop if the grass collector is full. Do not engage mower until grass collector has been emptied.

    Drive to dumping location, stop tractor and lock the park brake.
