WARNING

Use EXTREME caution when mowing and/or turning on slopes as loss of traction and/or tip-over could occur. Drive slower on slopes. DO NOT mow slopes greater than 15 degrees. Watch for ditches, holes, rocks, dips and rises, which change the operating angle. Keep away from drop-offs and steep banks. Avoid sudden starts when mowing uphill - mower may tip backwards. Loss of traction may occur going downhill - weight transfer to the front wheels may cause drive wheels to slip and cause loss of braking. DO NOT mow slopes when grass is wet - slip- pery conditions affect steering and reduce traction and braking. The operator is respon- sible for safe OPERATION ON SLOPES.

TRANSPORTING

IMPORTANT- When transporting the Home Series ZT in a truck bed or on a trailer, secure- ly fasten the ZT to the bed with straps or other suitable bindings. This will prevent movement of the ZT which may cause undue wear and damage to the parking brake system.
