There is nothing in the Operator's Manual about this. Does anyone know the safe stability limit of the tractor when traversing a slope? I would have thought that this limit would have been establised at the outset and would appear in bold print in the manual. One bit of my field is quite steep and I mow up and down as much as possible, but I have to cross the slope at one point where is is not so steep, but it still makes me feel uneasy. Having been brought up in the country and living here in farming land, there are plenty of cases of people who have found the limits of their tractors, but unforunately, they have not lived to pass on the data.
Thanks
