Cautions on Upward/Downward
Slope
WARNING!
• If the machine tilts for “15 degrees” or more
forward, backward, leftward, or rightward
while travelling, the machine may overturn.
Do not travel on the slope of more
inclination.
• Be sure to switch the travelling high-speed
switch to the “OFF” (low speed) position
when travelling on the slope.
Travelling on the slope in the high-speed
travelling mode may result in overrun on the
downward slope.
• The slopes inclined for 15 degrees or more
presents overturning hazard. Do not travel on
these slopes.
• Be sure to switch the travelling high-speed
switch to the “OFF” (low speed) position when
travelling on the slope. The machine may
overrun.
• Never change the direction on the slope or cut
the slope horizontally.
Travel safely such as by going down to the
level ground and taking a detour.

• Operate the acceleration pedal and travelling
levers to decrease the travelling speed as
much as possible when going down the slope.
Operating the travelling lever to the "Neutral"
position automatically brakes the machine, but
may overrun when going down the slope at
high speed.
• Direct the machine perpendicular to the slope
and the operation seat must be the side of the
uphill when travelling on the slope.

• If the engine stops on the slope, return the
travelling levers to the "Neutral" position and
start the engine.
