transmission is in 4-wheel drive and the wheels are
chocked.
• When traversing a fore/aft slope that is equal to or
greater than 25% (14°), use an assist vehicle and shift
the crane’s transmission to four-wheel drive. Do not park
crane on a slope equal to or greater than 25% (14°).
• Travel on a fore/aft slope up to 30% (16°), such as
ramps, is permitted for short distances at low speed.
Consideration must be given for the terrain at the end of
the slope (for example, does the terrain level out so that
the crane can stop).
• For mine applications and similar, where the slopes and
the travel distance can be significant, brake fade must
be taken into consideration. Also, refer to Extended
Traveling, page 4-17 for precautions when driving the
crane for long distances.
• For slope limitations when traveling with an elevated
boom or an erected boom extension and inserts, refer to
the specific traveling instructions in this section.
Slope Limitations - Side Slope Travel:
• Side slope shall not exceed 15% (8.5°).
Operator should carefully consider the conditions and travel
at the appropriate speed given the condition and should not
exceed the maximum speeds in the following tables taking
into consideration both fore/aft slopes and side slope.
