Dixon RAM 42 2005 - Manual (Page 11)

WARNING
11
SLOPE OPERATION (continued):
DO NOT
Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then,
turn slowly and gradually downhill, if possible. Rapid
uphill turns may cause tip-over.
Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embank-
ments. The mower could suddenly turn over if a
wheel is over the edge of a cliff or ditch or if an
edge caves in.
Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could
cause sliding.
Do not try to stabilize the mower by putting your foot
on the ground.
Do not use grass catcher or other attachments on
steep slopes. The added weight may change the
stability of the mower thus creating the potential for
tip-over.
Failure to observe the following safety instructions
could result in serious injury or death.
