Slope Operation Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall accidents, which can result in severe injury. Operation on all slopes require extra caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not mow it. · Mow across the face of slopes; never up and down. Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on slopes. · Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other hidden objects. Uneven terrain could cause a slip and fall accident. Tall grass can hide obstacles. · Do not mow on wet grass or excessively steep slopes. Poor footing could cause a slip and fall accident. · Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments.
