Section 2 — Safe Operation Practices 9

Use this page as a guide to determine slopes where you may not operate safely.

WARNING! Do not operate your TANK S Zero-Turn tractor on such slopes. Do not mow on inclines with a slope in excess of 20 degrees (a rise of approximately 3 feet every 10 feet). A riding mower could overturn and cause serious injury.

Operate TANK S zero turn tractors across the face of slopes rather than up and down. Begin with the first pass across the bottom of the slope and turn uphill at the end of each pass whenever possible.
