WARNING

Failure to observe the following safety instructions could result in serious injury or death.

SLOPE OPERATION:

Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control

and tip-over accidents, which can result in

severe injury or death.

All slopes require extra caution. If you feel uneasy

on a slope, do not mow it!

DO

Mow across the slope with your Dixon® ZTR® -- never up or down. This will decrease the risk of tip-over.

Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, wires and other foreign objects that can be thrown by mower blades.

Watch for holes, ruts, roots and bumps. Uneven terrain could overturn the mower. Tall grass can hide such obstacles.

Use slow speed. Tires may lose traction on slopes even though the brakes are functioning properly.

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