SLOPE OPERATION
W A R N I N G
Do not mow a slope that has an angle of greater than 15° (a rise of approximately 2-1/2 ft.
[75m] every 10 ft. [3m]). Mow across the face of a slope, and never up and down.
•
Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall accidents that can result in severe injury.
Operation on slopes requires extra caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not mow it. For
your safety, do not attempt to mow slopes greater than 15 degrees.
•
Mow across the face of slopes, not up and down. Exercise extreme caution when changing
direction on slopes.
•
Watch for holes, ruts, rocks, hidden objects, or bumps which can cause you to slip or trip. Tall
grass can hide obstacles. Remove all objects such as rocks, tree limbs, etc., which could be
tripped over or thrown by the blade.
•
Always be sure of your footing. A slip and fall can cause serious personal injury. If you feel
you are losing your balance, release the switch control lever immediately.
•
Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments; you could lose your footing or balance.
