USE THIS SLOPE GAUGE TO DETERMINE
IF A SLOPE IS TOO STEEP FOR SAFE OPERA
TION!
To check the slop, pr
oceed as follows:
1. Remove this page and fold along the dashed line.
2. Locate a vertical object on or behind the slope (e.g. a pole, building, fence, tr
ee, etc.)
3. Align either side of the slope gauge with the object (See Fig 8 and Fig 9).
4. Adjust gauge up or down until the left cor
ner touches the slope(See Fig 8 and Fig 9).
5. If ther
e is a gap below the gauge, the slope is too steep for safe operation(See Fig 9 above).

Always trim acr
