PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
Always make sure the engine oil level
is correct. This is particularly important
when operating on slopes (see 7.4).
Pay attention when mowing on slopes:
avoid abrupt starts and stops, do not
run the machine transversally to the
slope but run from top to bottom and
vice versa.
Apply the parking brake when you park
the machine.
The machine may not be driven on slo-
pes greater than 10º in any direction.
Reduce the speed on slopes and when
making sharp turns in order to retain
control of the machine and reduce the
risk of overturning.
Do not turn the steering wheel to full
lock when driving at full speed. The ma-
chine may overturn.
Keep hands and feet well away from the
articulated steering joint and seat bra-
cket. Risk of crushing injuries.
