BE CAREFUL WHEN TRAVELLING OVER SLOPE
Always observe the following to prevent serious injuries and
death accidents when travelling over a slope for unavoidable
reason.
• When running on a slope, be sure to store the hook block in
the hook holder at the front end of the upper slewing body
to form a running posture.Any simplified fixation of the hook
at the tip of boom gives rise to the risk of loosening during
running.
Refer to the descriptions under "OPERATION 3.7
MACHINE TRAVELLING POSTURE
posture of the Machine.
•
When running on a slope having an inclination of 10
degrees or more, climb the slope in the reverse direction
and run downhill in the forward direction.Thus, always
allow the Machine front to face the valley when running on
a slope.Climbing the slope in the forward direction and
going downhill in the reverse direction cause the Machine
to be unstable, giving rise to the risk of tumbling or lateral
skidding.
• When running on an inclined terrain, d
perpendicular to the slope and never change the direction
on the slope or drive parallel to the slope.
Practice safe travelling by for instance lowering to the plain
land and divert.
•
Always keep such condition during running that the
chine can stop any time when it slips or becomes
unstable.
• When running downhill, lower the engine revolution and set
the running lever close to the neutral position and run in a
low speed.
• When running on a ground covered with grass and leaves or
on a wet steel plate, keep the speed to minimal. If the
ground in such condition is inclined only slightly, it is
extremely slippery.
• If the engine comes to a sudden stop, immediately return
each operating lever to its neutral position, and then restart
