POTENTIAL HAZARD
· Mowing on wet grass or steep slopes can cause
sliding and loss of control.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
· Wheels dropping over edges, ditches, steep banks,
or water can cause rollovers, which may result in
serious injury, death, or drowning.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
· Do not mow on slopes when grass is wet.
· Do not mow near drop-offs or near water.
· Do not mow on slopes greater than 15 degrees.
·Do not mow on slopes greater than 10 degrees when
grass catcher is installed.
· Reduce speed and use extreme caution on slopes.
· Avoid sudden turns or rapid speed changes.
Use a walk behind mower /or a hand trimmer
near drop-offs, ditches, steep banks, or water.
This area can be dangerous, see Figure1.
Greater care is needed as the slope increases.
Always avoid sudden starting or stopping on a
slope. If tires lose traction, disengage the blades
and proceed slowly off the slope.
Avoid sudden starts when mowing uphill. Mower
may tip backwards.
Be aware that loss of traction may occur going
downhill. Weight transfer to the front wheels may
cause drive wheels to slip and cause loss of
braking and steering.
Watch for ditches, holes, rocks, dips, and rises
that change the operating angle, as rough terrain
could overturn the machine.
Use extreme care with grass catchers or
attachments. These can change the stability of the
machine and cause loss of control.
