OPERATING THE MACHINE
Maximum gradeability:
Slope rating: 25%/14°
2. Ensure the machine is in stowed position.
3. Ensure the slope grade is within the limits of the
machine gradeability.
NOTICE
Gradeability refers to the maximum permissible
percentage of the slope (or called slope grade as
below) when the machine is on solid ground with
sufficient traction and the platform is carrying only
one person. As the weight of the machine’s platform
increases, the machine’s gradeability reduces.
To determine the slope grade:
1. Use a carpenter’s level, a straight piece of wood (at
least 1 m [3.3 ft] long) and a tape measure.
2. Measure the height H and length/distance L of the
slope.
Figure 7-10
3. Slope grade= H/L x 100%.
NOTICE
The machine must not drive for over 2min on the
maximum permissible slope grade to prevent the
tires running suspended.
