Alamo 803350C manual Operation, OPS-F-0050, VERSA PRO 03/09

OPERATION

When confronted with an incline or ditch, do not approach from an angle which is perpendicular or straight on as damage to over collapse of the driveline may occur.

When crossing such terrain, the wings should be fully lowered for a lower center of gravity and added stability.

INCORRECT: DO NOT approach ditch straight on.

Inclines and ditches should be approached along a line which is at an angle as shown. This type of path will reduce the possibility of over-collapse of the driveline and resulting damage. If the gradient is so steep that such as approach increases the possibility of a tractor roll-over, select an alternate crossing path.

OPS-F-0050

CORRECT: Approach ditch at an angle.

When operating the tractor and mower across slopes and inclines, through ditches, and other uneven terrain conditions, it is important to maintain sufficient deck to ground clearance. Blade contact with the ground may cause soil, rocks and other debris to be thrown out from under the mower resulting in possible injury and/or property damage. Ground contact also produces a severe shock load on the mower drive and to the mower blades resulting in possible damage and premature wear.
