SAFETY

SLOPE OPERATION (continued):

DO (continued)

•Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose traction, disengage the blades and proceed slowly down the slope.

•If front wheels lift off the ground, pull the levers back to stabilize the mower.

DO NOT

Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, turn slowly and gradually downhill, if possible.

Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. The mower could suddenly turn over if a wheel is over the edge of a cliff or ditch, or if an edge caves in.

Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could cause sliding.

Do not try to stabilize the mower by putting your foot on the ground.

Do not use grass catcher on steep slopes.
