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.

•Mow up and down, not side-to-side.

•Never drive the rider on terrain that slopes more than 10°.

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

•Always drive evenly and slowly on slopes.

•Make no sudden changes in speed or direction.

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

•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.

•Drive slowly. Use small movements of the steering controls.

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

•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.

•Try not to stabilize the machine by putting a foot on the ground.

•When cleaning the chassis, the machine may never be driven near verges or ditches.
