Machine travel on slopes
Crushing hazard due to tipping over of machine!
A tipping machine can cause serious injury or death.
► Set the machine to travel position.
► Perform machine travel on slopes only on firm ground.
► Adapt the travel speed to the prevailing conditions.
► Avoid sudden travel movements.
► Pay attention to persons and obstacles.
► Pay attention to the stability limits of the machine (maximum gradient
angle 25 %, maximum lateral angle of inclination 25 %).
► Perform uphill and downhill machine travel only in speed range 1.
► Ensure that no parts of the body protrude outside the machine.
► Do not exceed the permissible payloads.
► Do not turn or tilt out a full skip during uphill or downhill machine travel.
► Tilt out the skip on slopes only on the uphill side of the machine.
► Diagonal machine travel is prohibited.
Stones and the humidity in the upper layer of the ground can affect
machine traction and stability.
The machine can slip sideways on gravel or loose, rocky soil. The stability
of the machine can be reduced on rough terrain.
On soft ground, the machine sinks into it or the wheels dig into it. This
increases the machine angle (maximum gradient angle and maximum
lateral angle of inclination), and the machine can tip over.
If the engine dies during uphill or downhill machine travel, immediately put
the forward-reverse control in neutral position and start the engine again.
The machine can slip even on gentle slopes if it travels across for example
grass, leaves, humid metal surfaces, frozen ground or ice.
