III, SLOPE
OPERATION
Slopes are a major factor related to slip &
fall accidents, which can result in severe
injury. All slopes require extra caution. If
you feel uneasy on a slope, do not mow it.
DO:
• Mow across the face of slopes: never
up and down. Exercise extreme caution
when changing direction on slopes.
• Remove obstacles
such as rocks, tree
limbs, etc.
• Watch for holes, ruts, bumps or hidden
objects.
Uneven terrain could cause a
slip and fall accident. Tall grass can hide
obstacles.
DO NOT:
• Do not mow near drop-offs,
ditches or
embankments.
You could lose your foot-
ing or balance.
• Do not mow on wet grass or excessively
steep slopes. Poor footing could cause a
slip and fall accident.
IV. SAFE HANDLING
OF GASOLINE
To avoid personal injury or property dam-
age, use extreme care in handling gaso-
line. Gasoline
is extremely flammable
and
the vapors are explosive.
• Extinguish

cigars, pipes
and other sources of ignition.

the engine running.

• Never store the machine or fuel contain-
er where there is an open flame, spark
or pilot light such as a water heater or on
other appliances.
• Never fill containers
inside a vehicle, on
a truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner.
Always place containers
on the ground
away from your vehicle before filling.
• Remove gas-powered
equipment from
the truck or trailer and refuel it on the
ground.
If this is not possible, then
refuel such equipment with a portable
container, rather than from a gasoline
dispenser
nozzle.
