ii. SloPE oPEraTioN
Slopes are a major factor related to slip and
fall accidents, which can result in severe
injury. Operation on all slopes requires extra
caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not
mow it.
1. Mow across the face of slopes; never up
and down. Exercise extreme caution when
changing direction on slopes.
2. Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or
other hidden objects. Uneven terrain could
cause a slip and fall accident. Tall grass can
hide obstacles.
3. Do not mow on wet grass or excessively
steep slopes. Poor footing could cause a
slip and fall accident.
4. Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or
embankments. You could lose your footing
or balance.

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is
not alert to the presence of children. Children

will remain where you last saw them.
1. Keep children out of the mowing area and
under the watchful care of a responsible
adult other than the operator.
2. Be alert and turn mower off if a child enters
the area.
3. Never allow children to operate the
machine.
