ENGLISH
7. Use special caution when changing direction on
slopes. Slow down, and use extra caution when
changing direction on a slope.
DO NOT
1. Do not turn on slopes unless necessary. If necessary,
turn uphill slowly and gradually.
2. Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments.
The mower could suddenly turn over if a wheel is over
the edge of cliff or ditch, or if an edge caves in.
3. Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could
cause sliding and loss of control.
4. Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting your foot
on the ground.
5. Do not use grass catcher on steep slopes.
6. Do not start or stop suddenly on slopes. If tires lose
traction, disengage PTO and proceed slowly straight
down the slope.
7. Never "freewheel". Do not let the machine travel
downhill with motion control levers at neutral lock
position or in neutral.
8. Do not operate machine without the mower deck
installed.
