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.
CHILDREN
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator
is not alert to the presence of children.
Children are often attracted to the mower
and the mowing activity. Never assume
that 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 mower.
4. Use extra care when approaching blind
corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects
that may block your view of a child.
