Moving Parts - Snapper S50xt Serie Manual Del Operador

If you feel unsure about operating the unit on a slope, don't
do it. It's not worth the risk.
Thrown Objects
This unit has spinning mower blades. These blades can pick
up and throw debris that could seriously injure a bystander.
Be sure to clean up the area to be mowed and remove
objects that could be thrown by the blade BEFORE you start
mowing.
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.

Moving Parts

This equipment has many moving parts that can injure you
or someone else. However, if you stay in the operator zone
(stay seated in the seat), and follow the safety rules in this
operator's manual, 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 unit
while it is running! Keep safety devices (guards, shields, and
switches) in place and working.
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.
Retaining Walls, Drop-Offs and Water
Retaining walls and drop-offs around steps and water are
a common hazard. Do NOT operate down slope towards or
near water, retaining walls, or drop-offs.
Give yourself a minimum of two mower widths of clearance
around these hazards and hand-trim with a walk behind
mower or string trimmer. Wheels dropping over retaining
walls, edges, ditches, embankments, or into water can
cause rollovers, which may result in serious injury, death, or
drowning.
Fuel and Maintenance
Always disengage all drives, shutoff the engine, and remove
the key before doing any cleaning, refueling, or servicing.
Gasoline and its vapors are extremely flammable. Do not
smoke while operating or refueling. Do not add fuel while
engine is hot or running. Allow engine to cool for at least 3
minutes prior to adding fuel.
Do not add fuel indoors, in an enclosed trailer, garage, or any
other enclosed area that is not well ventilated. Gasoline spills
should be cleaned up promptly and before operation begins.
Gasoline should be stored only in sealed containers approved
for fuel.
Proper maintenance is critical to the safety and performance
of your unit. Keep the unit free of grass, leaves, and excess
oil. Be sure to perform the maintenance procedures listed in
this manual, especially periodically testing the safety system.
