2. Locatea vertical object on or behindthe slope(e.g. a pole,building,fence, tree, etc.)
3. Align either sideof the slopegaugewith the object (SeeFigure1 and Figure2 ).
4. Adjust gaugeup or down until the left cornertouchesthe slope(See Figure1 and Figure2).

Slopes are a majorfactor related to tip-over and roll-over accidents which can result in severe injury or death. Do not operate machine on slopes
in excess of 10degrees. All slopes requireextra caution, if you cannot back up the slope or if you feel uneasy on it, do not mow it.
Always mow up and down the face of slopes, nevermow across the face of slopes.
