Safety
2-10
• Always watch for holes, soft edges or other hazards when back-
ing to dump over a spoil bank.
• Always apply the brakes with the Parking-Emergency brake con-
trol when the machine is being loaded or when dumping a load.
• This machine is installed with a safety feature which prevents
‘uncontrolled movement’ when the machine is in neutral gear
• Park / Emergency brake is applied automatically when transmis-
sion is shifted to neutral and outspeed is less than
60RPM~1MPH
• The automatic application of the park brake is released when a
forward or reverse transmission gear is requested by the opera-
tor. However, the park brake switch overrides the release of the
automatic park brake control only when the machine is in gear.
• Always stay in the cab when the machine is being loaded.
• Always lower the body and shut down the machine according to
the procedure under 'Stopping The Engine' described in section 4
before leaving the machine unattended. If on a grade wheels
should be blocked.
Roading
• Match speed to road conditions.
• Yield the right of way when required. Obey the rules of the road.
• Stay as close to the side of the road as possible. Pass other
equipment only when the road is clear, there is sufficient space to
pass, and reserve power is available.
• Stop at appropriate intervals to inspect the machine and allow the
tyres to cool. Tyre air pressure will rise during operation. Do not
reduce tyre pressure. Excess speed will cause tyres to heat up.
Reduce your travel speed, not tyre pressure.
• Use accessory lights and devices at night or in poor visibility.
Carry a flare kit. Do not overdrive your headlights.
