(a rise of approximately
2-1/2 feet every 10 feet).

]f operating
a walk-behind
mower on such a slope, it is
extremely
difficult
to maintain
your footing
and you could slip, resulting
in serious
injury.
Operate
RZT zero turn tractors
across
the face of slopes
rather than up and down. Begin with the first pass
across
the bottom
of the slope and turn uphill at the end of each pass whenever
possible.
