To be honest, I'm not the least bit familiar with that model, but it would appear to have a higher center of gravity and if running on hills sideways, no roll over protection structure, seat with a belt, this could be very unsafe and have fatal consequences. You may be able to run up and down the slope, but you had best have good brakes, even then slippery cut and wet vegetation, you can easily slide.
This is why I like old ford and similar size and configuration utility tractors, ideally an LCG like what ford offered, and or anything similar, would be your best bet, this is nothing to fool with, I've worked on steep hills a good part of the time I've lived here, from childhood and for many years in adulthood, its not something to take lightly, my old ford 850 handles them fine, but could be turned over, one good chuck hole, low spot in tall weeds, a hidden stump or say a broken spindle or something you never saw coming, on a tractor with not so low a center of gravity, could be all it takes, then you are pinned, suffocated, possibly burned alive or if you get bumped off and into that rotary cutter, well you see where this is leading.
