7.12 MOWING ON SLOPES __________________________________________________
The mower has been designed for good traction and stability under normal mowing conditions. Use caution
when operating on slopes, especially when the grass is wet. Wet grass reduces traction and steering control.
WARNING
To minimize the possibility of overturning, the
safest method for operating on hills and
terraces is to travel up and down the face of
the slope (vertically), not across the face
(horizontally). Avoid unnecessary turns,
travel at reduced speeds, and stay alert for
hidden hazards.
1.
Always mow with the engine at full throttle, control forward speed using traction foot pedal to maintain
proper cutting.
2.
Use weight transfer control as required to
improve weight distribution between decks and
mower.
3.
If the mower tends to slide or the tyres begin to
mark the turf, angle mower into a less steep
slope until traction is regained or tyre marking stops.
4.
If mower continues to slide or mark the turf, the slope is too steep for safe operation. Do not make another
attempt to climb, and back down slowly.
5.
When descending a steep slope, always lower
implements to the ground to reduce the risk of
mower overturning.
Correct tyre pressure is essential for maximum
traction.
