12. After the first full day of use, all nuts, bolts and

screws should be rechecked for proper tightness

and the belts should be rechecked for proper

tension.

Set the ground speed control lever at the

desired speed for spreading or spraying. Refer

to the application chart on page 10 & 11.

NOTE:

D. Slope Operation

Slopes are a major factor related to loss of

control and tip-over accidents, which can result

in severe injury or death.

Note: All slopes require extra caution. If you can-

not back up the slope or if you feel uneasy on it, do

not 90 on it.

For your safety, use the slope gauge included as a part

of this manual (see pg. 15) to measure slopes before

operating this unit on a sloped or hilly area. If the slope

is greater than 15 degrees as shown on the slope

gauge, do not operate this unit on that area or serious

injury could result.

DO:

• Go across slopes, not up and down.

• Remove obstacles such as rocks, limbs, etc.

• Watch for holes, ruts or bumps. Uneven terrain

could overturn the machine. Tall grass can hide

obstacles.

• Use slow speed. Choose a low enough speed so

that you will not have to stop while on the slope.

• Follow the manufacture’s recommendations for

counterweights with attachments to improve stabil

ity.

• Keep all movement on the slopes slow and grad-

ual. Do not make sudden changes in speed or

direction. Rapid acceleration or deceleration could

cause the front of the machine to lift and rapidly flip

over backwards, which could cause serious injury.

• Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If the tires

lose traction, disengage the blades and proceed

slowly straight down the slope.

DO NOT:

• Do not turn on slopes unless necessary; then,

turn slowly and use extra care.

• Do not operate near drop-offs, ditches or embank-

ments. The unit could suddenly turn over if a wheel

is over the edge of a cliff or ditch, or if an edge

caves in.

• Do not operate on wet grass. Reduced traction

could cause sliding.

• Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting your

foot on the ground.
