Cautions on Traveling on Slopes
WARNING
¡¡
¡¡
¡Never exceed the machine’s stability
capabilities (maximum gradeability -
30°, lateral tipping angle - 15°). Also
note that when actual working area
conditions are poor the machine’s
stability capabilities may be lower.
¡¡
¡¡
¡When traveling on slopes or grades,
lower the bucket to a height of 20 to 30
cm (8 to 12 in.) off the ground. In
emergencies, lower the bucket to the
ground and stop the machine.
¡¡
¡¡
¡Travel at slow speed on slopes.
Especially when going down slopes,
reduce the engine (r.p.m.) speed and
set the stroke of the left control lever
to half or less before going down.
Going down a slope too fast will lead
to loss of control.
¡¡
¡¡
¡When going up or down slopes having
a gradient of 15 degrees or more, travel
up and down slope with the heavy end
of the machine pointed uphill.
¡¡
¡¡
¡When traveling on a slope, be cautious
of tipping over or sliding sideways.
¡¡
¡¡
¡Do not travel down slopes in reverse.
¡¡
¡¡
¡Do not change directions or cross
slopes sideways. First return to a flat
surface then redirect the machine.
¡¡
¡¡
¡On grass, dead leaves, wet metal or
frozen surfaces, the machine may slide
sideways even on very gentle slopes.
Make sure the machine never faces
sideways with respect to the slope.
