fig. 18 – b) a) going uphill; b) going downhill
When addressing sloped segments, especially when the machine is loaded, you
must use this particular driving technique (see fig. 18):
Always address the uphill and in the downhill slopes in forward gear;
On high slope ground is necessary to work with high regimen of motor (as the
slope) minimizing the opening of drive levers (see fig. 19); otherwise could be veri-
fy cavitation problems and missing the “engine-brake” effect (the hydraulic mo-
tors are forced by the slope and they function like a pump): if the machine in-
crease the speed “alone”, release the drive levers.
WARNING: Avoid using the machine on a slope with not regular surface.
Use the machine only in conditions of hard ground place and without stones.
Downhill reduce the load by 50%
3.5.6 Movement in downhill
fig. 19 – Motor regimen going downhill
DANGER: if the machine travelling on high slope with minimum motor regimen
and maximum opening of drive levers, “engine brake” effect is missing and the
machine coud increase the speed out of control with the possibility of serious
consequences for the safety of operator and the proximity persons.
3.5.7 Stopping Movement
To stop movement one must release the drive levers for the tracks simul-
taneously.
