SLOPE OPERATION

Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control and tip- over accidents, which can result in severe injury or death. Operation on all slopes requires extra caution. If you cannot back up the slope or if you feel uneasy on it, do not operate on it.

Control of a walk-behind or ride-on machine sliding on a

slope will not be regained by the application of the brake. The main reasons for loss of control are: insufficient tire

grip on the ground, speed too fast, inadequate braking, the type of machine is unsuitable for its task, lack of awareness

of the ground conditions, incorrect hitching and load distri- bution.

1.Mow across slopes, not up and down.

2.Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Uneven terrain could overturn the unit. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

3.Choose a slow speed so that you will not have to stop or change speeds while on the slope.

4.Do not mow on wet grass. Tires may loose traction.

5.Never mow down slopes.

6.Avoid starting, stopping, or turning on a slope. If tires lose traction (i.e. machine stops forward motion on a slope), disengage the blade(s) (PTO) and drive slow off the slope.

7.Keep all movement on slopes slow andgradual. Do not make sudden changes in speed or direction, which could cause the machine to rollover.

8.Use extra care while operating machines with grass catchers or other attachments; they can affect the stability of the unit. Do not use on steeps slopes.

9.Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting your foot on the ground (ride-on units).

10.Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embank- ments. The mower could suddenly turn over if a

wheel !s over the edge of a cliff or ditch, or if an edge caves in.

11.Do not use grass catchers on steep slopes.

12.Do not mow slopes ifyou cannot back up them.

13.See your authorized dealer/retailer for recommenda- tions of wheel weights or counterweights to improve stability.

14.Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc.

15.Use slow speed. Tires may lose traction on slopes even through the brakes are functioning properly.

16.Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, turn slowly and gradually uphill, if possible. Never mow down slopes.

TOWED EQUIPMENT (RIDE-ON UNITS)

t.Tow only with a machine that has a hitch designed for towing. Do not attach towed equipment except at the

hitch point.

2. Follow the manufacturer s recommendations for weight limit for towed equipment and towing on slopes. See attaching a trailer under OPERATION.

3. Never allow children or others in or on towed equip- ment.

4. On slopes, the weight of the towed equipment may cause loss of traction and loss of control.

5. Travel slowly and allow extra distance to stop.

6. Do not shift to neutral and coast down hill.

WARNING

Never operate on slopes greater than 17.6 percent

(10 °) which is a rise of 3-1/2 feet (106 cm) vertically in 20 feet (607 cm) horizontally.

Select slow ground speed before driving onto slope. Use extra caution when operating on slopes with rear- mounted grass catchers.

Mow across the face of slopes, not up and down,use

caution when changing directions and DO NOT START OR STOP ON SLOPE.

CHILDREN

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted to the unit and the mowing activity. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.

t. Keep children out of the mowing area and under the watchful care of another responsible adult.

2.Be alert and turn unit off if children enter the area.

3.Before and during reverse operation, look behind and down for small children.

4.Never carry children, even with the blade(s) off. They may fall off and be seriously injured or interfere with safe unit operation. Children who have been given

rides in the past may suddenly appear in the mowing area for another ride and be run over or backed over by the machine.

5.Never allow children to operate the unit.

6.Use extra care when approaching blind corners,

shrubs, trees, or other objects that may obscure

vision.

EMISSIONS

t. Engine exhaust from this product contains chemicals known, in certain quantities, to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

2.Look for the relevant Emissions Durability Period and Air Index information on the engine emissions label.
