Children
Tragic accidents can occur with children. Do not allow them
anywhere near the area of operation. Children are often
attracted to the unit and mowing activity. Never assume that
children will remain where you last saw them. If there is a risk
that children may enter the area where you are mowing, have
another responsible adult watch them.

Slope Operation

Operation on slopes can be dangerous. Slopes are a major
factor related to accidents, which can result in severe injury or
death. Using the unit on a slope that is too steep, where you
do not have adequate wheel traction (and control) can cause
sliding, loss of steering, control, and possible rollover.
You should not operate on a slope greater than 17 degrees.
Always mow across slopes, not up and down (to maintain
traction on the wheels) and avoid sudden turns or rapid speed
changes. Reduce speed and use extreme caution on ALL
slopes.
Also, note that the surface condition you are on can greatly
impact your ability to safely operate this machine. Operating
on wet or slippery slopes can cause sliding and loss of
steering and control. Do not operate on slopes that are
slippery, wet, or have soft soil conditions.
If you feel unsure about operating the unit on a slope, don't do
it. It's not worth the risk.
