Slope Operation• Do not operate near drop-offs, ditches, steep banks orwater. Wheels dropping over edges can cause rollovers,which may result in serious injury, death, or drowning.• Do not operate on slopes when grass is wet. Slipperyconditions reduce traction and could cause sliding andloss of control.• Do not make sudden turns or rapid speed changes.• Reduce speed and use extreme caution on slopes.• Remove or mark obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc.from the operating area. Tall grass can hide obstacles.• Watch for ditches, holes, rocks, dips, and rises that changethe operating angle, as rough terrain could overturn themachine.• Avoid sudden starts when operating uphill because themachine may tip backwards.• Always avoid sudden starting or stopping on a slope. Iftires lose traction, disengage the attachment and proceedslowly off the slope.• Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for wheelweights or counterweights to improve stability.• Use extreme care with all attachments. These can changethe stability of the machine and cause loss of control.Sound Power LevelNote: The data contained in this section only pertains tounits marked with the CE logo.This unit has a guaranteed sound power level of 101 dBA,which includes an Uncertainty Value (K) of 1 dBA.Sound power level was determined according to theprocedures outlined in ISO 11094.Sound Pressure LevelNote: The data contained in this section only pertains tounits marked with the CE logo.These units have a sound pressure level at the operator’s earof 85 dBA, which includes an Uncertainty Value (K) of 1 dBA.Sound pressure level was determined according to theprocedures outlined in EN ISO 5395:2013..Vibration LevelHand-ArmMeasured vibration level for right hand = 0.39 m/s2Measured vibration level for left hand = 0.34 m/s2Uncertainty Value (K) = 0.5 m/s2Measured values were determined according to the proceduresoutlined in EN ISO 5395:2013.Whole BodyMeasured vibration level = 0.41 m/s2Uncertainty Value (K) = 0.5 m/s26
