Cautions on Traveling on Slopes
WARNING
¡¡
¡¡
¡Never exceed the machine’s stability
capabilities (maximum gradeability – 30°,
lateral tipping angle – 15°). Also note
that when actual working area
conditions are poor the machine’s
stability capabilities may be lower.
¡¡
¡¡
¡When traveling on slopes or grades,
lower the bucket to a height of 20 to 30
cm (8 to 12 in.) off the ground. In
emergencies, lower the bucket to the
ground and stop the machine.
¡¡
¡¡
¡When traveling on slopes or grades,
move slowly in first gear (low speed).
¡¡
¡¡
¡Do not travel down slopes in reverse.
¡¡
¡¡
¡Do not change directions or cross
slopes sideways. First return to a flat
surface then redirect the machine.
¡¡
¡¡
¡On grass, dead leaves, wet metal or
frozen surfaces, the machine may slide
sideways even on very gentle slopes.
Make sure the machine never faces
sideways with respect to the slope.
