H. Slope Operation
1. All slopes require extra caution. If you feel the mower cannot maintain traction
on the slope, it is too steep to mow. Wet grass will decrease traction and may
cause the mower to slip and slide on the slope. Serious injury or property
damage could result.
2. For your safety, measure any slope before using the mower on the sloped
area. Use a slope measuring device before setting up the mowing zones or
operating this mower on a sloped or hilly area. Smart phone applications can
also be utilized to measure slopes. If the slope at the perimeter is greater
than 15 degrees (27%), RT models may slide out of the mowing zone. For RK
models mower may slide out of the mowing zone at 24 degrees (45%).
3. Do not mow on slopes greater than 15 degrees (27%) with RT models and
greater than 24 degrees (45%) with RK models.
4. Do not operate the mower under any conditions where traction or stability is in
question. Always be sure of the mowing surface. A tip or overturn could cause
serious personal injury or property damage.
5. Stay at least 4 feet (1.2 meter) from drop-os, ditches, embankments or the
edge of water to help ensure the mower does not get out of the mowing zone.
You could damage the mower or cause a serious injury.
I. Maintenance and Special Instructions
1. Keep the mower in good working order. Replace worn, damaged or broken
parts.
2. To avoid serious injury do not modify the mower in any way.
3. Non-O.E.M. blades might not t properly or could be inferior quality and a
safety concern.
4. Always remove the disabling device rst before servicing or inspection.
5. The blade should come to a complete stop within two (2) seconds after
pressing the red stop control. If you do not hear the blade stop in less
than two (2) seconds, your mower must be serviced professionally by an
authorized service dealer.
6. Never use a high pressure power washer or hose to clean the mower. Water
can damage components and the programmable controller. Use a damp cloth
to wipe the display clean.
7. Visually inspect blade for damage (e.g., excessive wear, bent, cracked).
Replace the blade with the original equipment manufacturer’s (O.E.M.) blade
only.
8. Use of service parts which do not meet the original equipment specications
may lead to improper performance and compromise safety.
9. After striking a foreign object, or getting hung up, stop the mower, remove
disabling device and switch o the mower. Thoroughly inspect the mower for
any damage. Repair the damage before starting and operating.
