12.13 PRECAUTIONS WHEN TRAVELLING UP
OF DOWN HILLS
• When travelling, raise the bucket approx. 20 - 30 cm from the
ground.
Do not travel downhill in reverse
• When travelling over ridges or other obstacles, keep work
equipment close to the ground and travel slowly.
• It is dangerous to turn on slopes or to travel across slopes.
Always go down to a flat place to perform these operations. It
may be longer, but it wil ensure safety.
• If the machine starts to slide or loses stability, lower the
bucket immediately and brake the machine.
• Turning or operating the work equipment when working on
slopes may cause the machine to lose its balance and turn
over, so avoid such operations. It is particularly dangerous to
swing downhill when the bucket is loaded.
If such operations have to be carried out, pile soil to make
platform on the slope so that the machine can be kept horizon-
tal when operating.
• Do not travel on slopes of over 30° as there is danger that the
machine may overturn.
1. When travelling down steep hills, use the travel lever and fuel control
lever to keep the travel speed low.
When travelling down slopes of more than 15°, set the work equip-
ment in the posture shown in the figure on the right, and lower the
engine speed.
2. When travelling up a steep hill of more than 15°, set the work equip-
ment in the posture shown in the diagram on the right.
