weather and encourage weed growth during
the growing season.
Mow with uncut grass to the left. This will
distribute the clippings over the cut area.
Discharging clippings over the uncut area
will cause a grass buildup and may prevent
uniform cutting.
Remember that sharp blades produce cleaner
cuts and use less power.
Extremely tall grass should be mowed twice.
Cut grass higher first ,then cut the second
time at desired height and 90° to the first
pass.

�
DO NOT operate on steep slopes. This
machine was not specifically designed to
operate on steep slopes.
�
The operator is responsible for safe
operation on slopes. Only the operator can
determine the stability of the mower on a
given slope based on existing conditions
like: machine speed and direction, slope
variation, slipperiness, drop-offs, holes,
obstacles, etc.
�
To determine stability on a slope, start at
the bottom and try to back the mower up
the slope slowly. If you cannot back up the
slope or if you feel uneasy on it, DO NOT
operate on it.
�
Always start mowing at the bottom of
slopes. Traveling up slopes, this machine
has more traction traveling forward than
backward. Be careful on slopes to avoid
driving forward into a position where
there is not enough traction to enable
backing out or stopping.
�
Tires may lose traction on slopes even
though the brakes are functioning
properly.
�
Avoid sudden starts and acceleration
when traveling forward uphill as mower
may tip backwards.
�
DO NOT mow slopes when grass is wet
because slippery conditions will reduce
traction and braking which in turn affects
steering.
�
Use caution when making turns. Slow the
mower down before making sharp turns.
Unit can spin very rapidly by positioning
one lever too much ahead or behind the
other.
�
Look around you to be sure the area is
clear before turning or backing up.
�
Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If
tires lose traction, disengage the blades
and proceed slowly straight down the
slope.
�
Keep all movement on slopes slow and
gradual. DO NOT make sudden changes
in speed or direction.
�
Use extra care with grass catchers or
other attachments. These can change the
stability of the machine. DO NOT use
grass catcher on steep slopes.
�
DO NOT operate without ROPS
deployed.
�
If machine is equipped with a fixed
ROPS, always wear seatbelt.
�
Wear seatbelt when mowing.
�
Be certain that the seatbelt can be
released quickly if the machine is driven
or rolls into ponds or water.
�
Check carefully for overhead clearances
such as, branches, doorways, or electrical
wires, before driving under any objects
and DO NOT contact them or contact
them.
