How to measure the slope of a lawn surface with a smart
phone or an angle finder tool:
CRUZ ZERO TURN MOWER
WARNING: Do not operate on slopes greater than
15 degrees.
1. Use a straight edge at least two (2) feet long (A, Fig. 1).
A 2x4 or a straight piece of metal works as well.
2. Angle finder tools:
Use your smart phone: Many smart phones (B, Fig. 1)
a.
have an in-clinometer (angle finder) located under the
compass application (app). Alternatively, you can search
your phone's app store for an in-clinometer app.
Use angle finder tools: Angle finder tools (C and D,
b.
Fig. 1) are available at local hardware stores or online
(also called in-clinometer, protractor, angle meter, or
angle gauge). Dial type (C) or digital type (D) work,
others may not. Read and obey the user instructions
supplied with the angle finder tool.
3. Put the two (2) feet long straight edge along the steepest
part of the lawn slope. Put the board up and down the
slope.
4. Lay the smart phone or angle finder tool on the straight
edge and read the angle in degrees. This is the slope of
your lawn.
