and instructions

Safety Frame (OPS)
1. Your vehicle is equipped with a operator protective
structure (OPS) which must be maintained in a fully
functional condition. Use care when driving through
doorways or spaces with a low overhead.
a. Never modify the OPS in any way.
b. Never attempt to straighten or reweld any part
of the main frame or retaining brackets that
have been damaged. Doing so may weaken the
structure and endanger your safety.
c. Never secure any parts other than Cub Cadet
approved accessories on the main frame or
attach the safety frame with anything other than
the special fasteners specified.
d. Never attach ropes, chains, or cables to the OPS
for pulling purposes.
e. Although the OPS provides you the maximum
protection possible, never take unnecessary risks.
Service
Safe Handling Of Gasoline:
1. To avoid personal injury or property damage use
extreme care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is
extremely flammable and the vapors are explosive.
Serious personal injury can occur when gasoline is
spilled on yourself or your clothes which can ignite.
Wash your skin and change clothes immediately.
a. Use only an approved gasoline container.
b. Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck
or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place
containers on the ground away from your vehicle
before filling.
c. When practical, remove gas-powered equipment
from the truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground.
If this is not possible, then refuel such equipment on
a trailer with a portable container, rather than from a
gasoline dispenser nozzle.
d. Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel
tank or container opening at all times until fueling is
complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.
e. Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other
sources of ignition.
f. Never fuel machine indoors.
g. Never remove gas cap or add fuel while the engine
is hot or running. Allow engine to cool at least two
minutes before refueling.
h. Never over fill fuel tank. Fill tank to no more than ½
inch below bottom of filler neck to allow space for
fuel expansion.
i. Replace gasoline cap and tighten securely.
j. If gasoline is spilled, wipe it off the equipment. Move
unit to another area. Wait 5 minutes before starting
the engine.
k. To reduce fire hazards, keep vehicle free of debris
build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage and remove
any fuel soaked debris.
l. Never store the vehicle or fuel container inside
where there is an open flame, spark or pilot light as
on a water heater, space heater, furnace, clothes
dryer or other gas appliances.
