Safety Instructions
• The differential lock should also be used on
slopes.
• Never drive the machine on terrain that slopes
more than 10°.
• Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If the tyres
start to slip, stop the blades and drive slowly down
the slope.
• Always drive evenly and slowly on slopes.
• Make no sudden changes in speed or direction.
• Avoid unnecessary turns on slopes, and if it proves
necessary, turn slowly and gradually downward, if
possible.
• Watch out for and avoid driving over furrows,
holes, and bumps. It is easier for the machine to
overturn on uneven ground. Tall grass can hide
obstacles.
• Drive slowly. Do not turn the wheel sharply.
• Be extra cautious with any additional equipment,
which can alter the machine’s stability.
• Do not mow near verges, ditches, or banks. The
machine can suddenly overturn if one wheel
comes over the edge of a steep slope or a ditch, or
if an edge gives way.
• Do not mow wet grass. It is slippery, and tyres can
lose their grip so that the machine skids.
