• To cut grass on slopes increases the risk that you
can not control the product and that it overturns. This
can cause injury or death. It is necessary to cut the
grass carefully on all slopes. If you cannot reverse
up a slope or if you do not feel safe, do not cut it.
• Remove stones, branches and other obstacles.
• Cut up and down the slope, not from side to side.
• Do not move down a slope with the cutting deck
lifted.
• Do not operate the product on ground that slopes
more than 10°.
• Do not start or stop on a slope.
• Move smoothly and slowly on slopes.
• Do not make sudden changes in speed or direction.
• Do not turn more than necessary. Turn slowly and
gradually when you move down a slope. Move at low
speed. Turn the wheel carefully.
• Look out for and do not move across furrows, holes
and bumps. There is a higher risk that the product
overturns on ground that is not flat. Long grass can
hide obstacles.
• Do not cut grass near edges, ditches or banks. The
product can suddenly overturn if a wheel moves
across the edge of a steep slope or a ditch, or if an
edge gives way. If the product falls into water, there
is a risk of drowning.
• Do not mow wet grass. It is slippery, and tires can
lose their grip so that the product skids.
• Do not put your foot on the ground to try to make the
product more stable.
• Move very carefully if an accessory or other object is
attached that can make the product less stable.
