If the engine stalls or the machine loses headway and
cannot make it to the top of a slope, do not turn the
machine around. Always back slowly straight down the
slope.

Do not take an injury risk! When a person or pet
appears unexpectedly in or near the operating area, stop
operation. Careless operation, combined with terrain
angles, ricochets, or improperly positioned guards can
lead to thrown object injuries. Do not resume operation
until the area is cleared.
