47 MT55 Operation & Maintenance Manual
OPERATING PROCEDURE (CONT’D)
Driving On Rough Terrain And Over Curbs
Drive slowly when operating on rough terrain. Always carry the bucket or attachment as low as possible.
Figure 50
Figure 51
When the mini track loader climbs over a curb and the
center of gravity goes past the curb, it will tip forward (or
backward) quickly [Figure 50] and [Figure 51]. Be
careful to keep your feet and body away from the tracks
and rear of the machine at all times.
Figure 52
Never back off a curb or step with no load or with lift arms
raised [Figure 52].
If you will be repeatedly driving over a curb or slope, build
a ramp with dirt to make the ascent more gradual.
NOTE: Always keep the heavy end uphill.
Always warm the engine and hydraulic system before
operating the mini track loader.
Machines warmed up with moderate engine speed
and light load have longer life.
I-2015-0284
For maximum performance, run the engine at full speed.
Move the Drive / Steering Controls only a small amount
to operate the mini track loader slowly.
New operators must operate the mini track loader in an
open area without bystanders. Operate the controls until
the mini track loader can be handled at an efficient and
safe rate for all conditions of the work area.
