follow the warnings listed below.
•
Always fasten the seat belt when the roll bar is in
the raised position.
•
Never use the seat belt when the roll bar is down.
•
Keep the roll bar raised and locked unless
absolutely necessary to pass under an obstacle.
There is no roll over protection when the roll bar is
down.
•
Overhanging obstacles can be dangerous. Before
passing under tree branches and other obstacles,
always ensure sufficient clearance. If absolutely
necessary, lower the roll bar to pass under the
object. Return the roll bar to the raised and locked
position immediately after clearing the obstacle.
•
Never modify, alter or remove the roll bar.

Read and follow the instructions about inspecting
and maintaining the ROPS.
Inspect the Roll Bar
Failure to properly inspect and maintain the roll bar
can result in serious injury or death.
Inspect the roll bar to ensure that it has not been
damaged, weakened or otherwise compromised during
use. Inspect for evidence of misuse, wear, modification,
or damage. Contact your authorized servicing dealer if
you have any questions about the condition of the roll
bar.
•
Do not attempt to repair a roll bar. It must
be inspected and replaced by the manufacturer
following a collision, rollover, or other overhead
impact to ensure there is no microstructural
damage, which could reduce its effectiveness. Avoid
welding, straightening segments, or attempting
repairs on the roll bar. Likewise, refrain from
drilling holes or welding anything to it, as this will
compromise its structural integrity.
•
Before using the mower for the first time:
1. Make sure the mower's gross weight, including
attachments, payload, and operator, is below the
maximum weight stated on the roll bar label.
2. Check for missing, damaged, or loose hardware.
Make sure all of the components are in place
and securely attached.

of the roll bar. If you have questions, consult
your authorized servicing dealer.
•
Before each use or daily—Inspect the roll bar and
mounting hardware for:
1. Deformation or twisting of the roll bar.
2. Missing or damaged hardware—including
hardware that cannot be re-tightened.
3. Cracks in the metal tubing or welds.
4. Corrosion on the roll bar or the ROPS hardware.
5. Unauthorized welds, holes, or hardware.
6. In addition, confirm that the roll bar label and
ROPS warning information is still in place and
readable.
Inspect the Seat Belt
The seat belt is another component of the roll over
protection system. Inspect the seat belt regularly to
ensure that it can perform its intended safety function.
•
Before each use, check for wear or damage caused
by normal degradation, misuse, modification, or
abuse.
1. Check for fraying, cuts, or other wear in the
fabric of the seat belt.
2. Check the seat belt for dirt and debris. Remove
dirt. Confirm proper mechanical operation by
testing extension and retraction of the belt and
the mechanism securing the buckle and latch.
If the polymer or metal parts are damaged
or cracked, or if latching and releasing the
buckle are difficult, or if the seat belt has any
other mechanical problems, have the seat belt
replaced by your authorized servicing dealer.
2.4.11 DROP-OFFS AND WATER
Drop-offs around steps and water are a common
hazard. Never operate your mower down a slope
towards water, a retaining wall, or other drop-off. Use
extra caution when operating the mower in the vicinity
of such hazards.
