OPERATION 5
MHL360 E 5.37
5.15 Traveling
The loading machine can be driven in order to
change position within the site. Driving with a
load reduces stability, leads to higher compo-
nent strain and possible damage.
5.15.1 n Safety rules
Risk of fatal injuries from overturning load-
ing machine or collisions
The values in the carrying capacity tables
for "unsupported length" are stationary val-
ues. During driving the values are reduced
by up to 60%. Do not exceed the values
given in the carrying capacity tables.
Only drive the loading machine with the out-
rigger completely retracted.
No one except the operator may remain on
the machine or in the danger zone during
driving.
The loading machine is not licensed for use
on the road. The national provisions are to
be observed.
Route
The route must be solid, capable of sup-
porting loads, and free of obstacles. The
max. permitted incline is 5°.
Cab is over steering axle
The control elements for driving direction and
steering are related to the steering axle. The
cab should therefore be over the steering ax-
le.
n Cab is over oscillating axle (avoid)
If the cab is over the oscillating axle, particular
caution needs to be exercised. The actual
direction of travel and the wheel deflection are
then reversed for operation of the respective
control elements. Drive at an appropriate slow
speed.
Aligning the uppercarriage without load
Locking the oscillating axle.
Align uppercarriage with lower carriage in
the longitudinal direction. Maximum of five
degrees deviation.
Use the swing brake to secure the upper-
carriage against turning.
