Slope Operation
Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall accidents, which
can result in severe injury. Operation on slopes requires extra
caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not mow it. If the slope
is greater than 15 degrees, do not mow it.
Do:
1.
Mow across the face of slopes; never up and down. Exercise
caution when changing direction on slopes.
2.
Watch for holes, ruts, rocks, hidden objects, or bumps
which can cause you to slip or trip. Tall grass can hide
obstacles.
3.
Always be sure of your footing. A slip and fall can cause
serious personal injury.
