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.
· Reduce speed and use extreme caution on slopes.
· Avoid sudden turns or rapid speed changes.
z
See inside the back cover to determine the
approximate slope angle of the area to be mowed.
z
Use a walk behind mower /or a hand trimmer
near drop-offs, ditches, steep banks or water. This
area can be dangerous, see Figure1.
z
Progressively greater care is needed as the slope
increases.
z
Always avoid sudden starting or stopping on a
slope. If tires lose traction, disengage the blades
and proceed slowly off the slope.
z
Avoid sudden starts when mowing uphill. Mower
may tip backwards.
z
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.
z
Watch for ditches. Holes, rocks, dips, and rises
that change the operating angle, as rough terrain
could overturn the machine.
z
Use extreme care with grass catchers or
attachments. These can change the stability of the
machine and cause loss of control.

SAFE ZONE FOR MOWING
1.4.5 A Rollover Protection System (roll bar) is
installed on the unit.
POTENTIAL HAZARD
· There is no rollover protection when the roll bar is
down.
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
· Keep the roll bar in the raised and locked position
and use seat belt.
· lower the roll bar only when absolutely necessary.
· Do not wear seat belt when the roll bar is down.
· Drive slowly and carefully.
· Raise the roll bar as soon as clearance permits.
· Be certain that the seat belt can be released quickly
if the machine is driven or rolls into ponds of water.
· Check carefully for overhead clearance. (i.e.
branches, doorways, and electrical wires) before
driving under any objects and do not contact them.
1.4.6 Use caution when backing up.
LOOK BEHIND YOU!!
1.4.7 Stop the blades when transporting the
mower to and from the area to be mowed.
1.4.8 Never operate the mower with defective
guards, shields, or covers. Always have safety shields,
