CAUTION ON TRAVEL ON A
GRADE
* Reduce engine speed when maneuvering in
tight quarters or when breaking over a rise.
* Do not change travel speed ranges while going
downhill.
* Work up and down slopes rather then
sideways, whenever possible. Do not travel
across a grade by all means.
* Avoid changing the direction of travel on a slope,
which could result in tipping or side slipping of
the machine.
* Keep the arm in and carry the boom in a low
position.
* When starting up a steep grade or breaking
over a rise, keep the boom lowered as close to
the ground as possible.
1. When traveling up on a grade inclining by greater
than 15º, keep the position in the right illustration
and travel with a low engine speed.
2. When traveling down on a grade inclining by
greater than 15º, travel with the position in the
