Ascending slopes
Always ascend slopes travelling in the reverse
direction, with the load facing uphill.
Without a load, we recommend that you as-
cend slopes forwards.
Descending slopes
Travel down slopes must always be forwards,
with the load uphill.
Without a load, it is recommended to descend
slopes forwards.
In all cases, travel at a very low speed and
brake very gradually.
DANGER
Risk to life and/or risk of major equipment damage.
Never park the truck on a ramp. Never make a U-
turn or take shortcuts on a ramp. On a slope, the op-
erator must drive very slowly.
WARNING
Risk of serious injury and/or serious damage to
equipment
Since braking force is limited, a laden truck can climb
a smooth gradient of 6% or less. An unladen truck
can climb a smooth gradient of 16% or less.
Starting on a slope
If you have to stop and then start on slope,
proceed as follows:
– Stop on the slope by pressing the accelera-
tor in the opposite direction until the ma-
chine comes to a standstill.
