SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Driving on Slopes

Driving on slopes is one of the operations where the risk is greatest that the driver will lose control or the machine will tip over, which can result in serious injury or death. All slopes require extra caution. If you cannot reverse up a slope or if you feel unsure,

do not mow the slope.

Do as follows

Remove obstacles such as stones, tree branches, etc.

Watch out for and avoid driving over furrows, holes, and bumps. On uneven terrain, the machine can tip more easily. Long grass can hide obstacles.

Mow up and down, not side-to-side.

If machine stops while going uphill, disengage blades and back down slowly.

Drive evenly and slowly. Use small movements of the motion control levers.

Be extra cautious with any additional equipment, which can alter the machine’s stability.

Do not

Do not make sudden changes in speed or direction.

Do not drive the machine on terrain that slopes more than 10°.

Do not mow near verges, ditches, or banks. The machine can suddenly spin around if a wheel goes over the edge of a drop or ditch, or if an edge gives way.

Do not mow wet grass. It is slippery, and the tires can lose their grip, so that the machine slides.

Avoid unnecessary turns on slopes, and if it proves necessary, turn slowly and gradually downward, if possible.

Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If the tires begin to slip, shut off the blades and drive slowly straight down the slope.
