gradually when you move down a slope. Move at low
speed. Turn the wheel carefully.
•

and bumps. There is a higher risk that the product
overturns on ground that is not flat. Long grass can
hide obstacles.

product can suddenly overturn if a wheel moves
across the edge of a steep slope or a ditch, or if an
edge gives way. If the product falls into water, there
is a risk of drowning.
•

attached that can make the product less stable.
•
To make the product more stable, attach wheel
weights or counterweights. Speak to your dealer for
more information. On R 316TX AWD, R 316TsX
