Lights And Power Outlet - Husqvarna P 520D Operator's Manual

Driving on slopes
Driving on slopes is one of the operations where the risk of
the driver losing control of the machine or of it overturning is
the greatest; this can result in serious injury or death. All
slopes demand extra care. If you cannot reverse up a slope or
if you feel unsure, do not mow it.
IMPORTANT! Do not drive down slopes with the cutting
deck raised.
This is what you do
• Remove obstacles such as stones, branches, etc.
• Mow upwards and downwards, not sideways.
• Do not use the machine on ground that slopes more than
10°.
• Take extra care if any attachments are fitted that can
change the stability of the machine.
• Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If the tyres start to
slip, stop the blades and drive slowly down the slope.
• Always drive smoothly and slowly on slopes.
• Always use ROPS (Rollover Protective Structure) and
seat belts when riding on slopes.
• Do not make any sudden changes in speed or direction.
• Avoid unnecessary turns on slopes, if necessary, turn
slowly and gradually downwards if possible. Drive slowly.
Do not turn the wheel sharply.
• Watch out for and avoid driving over furrows, holes and
bumps. It is easier for the machine to overturn on uneven
ground. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
• Do not mow too close to edges, ditches or banks. The
machine can suddenly overturn if one wheel comes over
the edge of a steep slope or a ditch, or if an edge gives
way.
• Do not mow wet grass. It is slippery, and tyres can lose
their grip so that the machine skids.
• Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting your foot on
the ground.
• When cleaning the chassis, the machine may never be
driven near verges or ditches.
OPERATING
• When mowing, keep away from bushes and other objects.
• Follow the manufacturer's recommendations regarding
wheel weights or counterbalance weights to increase
machine stability.
IMPORTANT! Some combinations of accessories require
additional counterweight at the rear Check with your dealer
for the right combination.
