III. SLOPE OPERATION
Slopes are a major factor related to slip & fall accidents,
which can result in severe injury. All slopes require extra
caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not mow it.

•
Mow across the face of slopes: nev er up and down.
Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on
slopes.
•
Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc.

terrain could cause a slip and fall accident. Tall grass
can hide obstacles.

Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches or embankments.
You could lose your footing or balance.
•
Do not mow on wet grass or excessively steep slopes.
Poor footing could cause a slip and fall accident.

•
Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other sources
of ignition.
•
Use only an approved container.
•
Never remove gas cap or add fuel with the engine
running.
•
Allow engine to cool before refueling.
