SAFETY

SLOPE OPERAT ON:

Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control and tip-over

accidents, which can result in severe injury or death.

All slopes require extra caution.

f you cannot back up the slope or if you feel uneasy on it, do not mow it!

Mow across the slope with your Dixon TR - never up or down.

Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc.

Watch for holes, ruts or bumps. Uneven terrain could overturn the mower. Tall

grass can hide obstacles.

Use slow speed. Tires may lose traction on slopes even though the brakes are

functioning properly.

Use extra care with grass catchers or other attachments. These can change the

stability of the mower.

Keep all movement on the slopes slow and gradual. Do not make sudden changes

in speed or direction.

Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose traction, disengage the blades and

proceed slowly down the slope.

If front wheels lift off the ground, pull the levers back to stabilize the mower.

DO NOT

Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, turn slowly and gradually

downhill, if possible.

Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. The mower could suddenly

turn over if a wheel is over the edge of a cliff or ditch, or if an edge caves in.

Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could cause sliding.

Do not try to stabilize the mower by putting your foot on the ground.

Do not use grass catcher on steep slopes.
