rollover and loss-of-control, use extreme caution on hillsides

and:

• Study terrain and plan a safe operating pattern.

DO NOT operate on slopes over 15 DEGREES.

• Use LOW GEAR on hills and lean uphill for balance.

your way up.

• Avoid sharp turns and sudden starts and stops.

• Apply rear brakes first and then front brakes.

• Reduce the amount of granular and liquid products carried.

• Operate as a walk-behind in situations where tip-over,

rollover or loss-of-control is possible.
