Figure 1
SAFE ZONE FOR MOWING
• Progr essively great er care is needed as the slope increases.
• Always avoid sudden starting or stopping on a slope. I f 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 transf er 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 chang e t he oper ating
angle, as rough terrain could overtur n the machine.
• Remove or mark obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc. from the mowing
area. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
• Use extreme care with grass cat chers or attachments. These can change t he
stability of the machine and cause loss of control.
