OPERATING THE MACHINE ON
SLOPING GROUND
During hillside operations, be extra careful.
Make sure that the low speed travel is selected.
When digging on a slope, avoid swinging the
upperstructure towards the bottom of the slope with
the backhoe bucket full. Always keep the travel
reduction gears pointing down towards the bottom of
the slope.
Always travel in the same direction as the slope, to
prevent the machine from turning over.
TOWING THE MACHINE
Towing is only authorized when the machine has
broken down.
First, make sure that it can be towed without risk of
further damage.
As far as possible try to carry out repairs on spot or
contact your Dealer.
WARNING: Never jump down from the
machine. When leaving from the operator's
compartment, or from the upperstructure,
always face the machine and use the steps
and access handles.
WARNING: Hillside operations can be
dangerous. Rain, snow, ice, loose gravel, soft
ground, etc. modify terrain conditions. It is up
to you to decide if the machine can be used
in perfect safety.
WARNING: Towing is a delicate manoeuvre
which is always carried out at the risk of the
user. The manufacturer's warranty does not
apply to incidents or accidents which occur
during towing. Where possible, carry out the
repairs at the site.
WARNING: The machine must be towed
very slowly, over a short distance and only if
it is really unavoidable.
WARNING: The operator must be the only
person on the machine when towing. Make
sure that nobody else is on the machine or
within its working range.
