Avoid moving along the edge of a slope or on uneven ground with one track in a horizontal position and
the other inclined or partially raised (with the machine inclined more than approximately 10°). In order
not to damage the tracks, always proceed with the sliding blocks resting on the same horizontal plane.
When the machine manoeuvres over an obstacle it creates an empty space between the bearing rollers
and the tracks and there is a risk that the track may come out of its seat.
The same may happen if the machine is reversing uphill and you try to make a sharp turn. An empty
space is created between the bearing roller, the front idler roller and the track, and there is a risk that it
may come out of its seat.
When changing direction and the track cannot move sideways due to an obstacle, the track could
become damaged and come out of its seat.
SLIPPING OR OVERTURNING
In order to avoid serious risks or the death of the operator it is prohibited to work
on slopes that have hard surfaces (e.g. cement). Under these working
conditions, always stand behind the machine or sufficiently far away from it
(more than 20 metres)
