► Perform smooth and slow movements with the machine.
► All doors and covers must be closed when tilting the machine.
► Tilt the machine only on firm ground.
► Tilt the machine only if it is at a standstill and if the attachment is
empty.
► Never turn, lower, or set down the attachments abruptly.
► Do not extend or retract the boom abruptly.
► Do not exceed a maximum lateral angle of inclination of 10°.
► Do not exceed a maximum gradient angle of 15°. Do not exceed a
maximum sloping angle of 15°.
► On a slope, position the machine so that the upper carriage is tilted
toward the slope.
Walls and parts of building touched by machine.
► When working in the immediate vicinity of a wall or parts of a building,
ensure that the upper carriage does not touch anything when it is tilted.
Tilting the upper carriage hydraulically and steplessly by up to 15° allows
you to compensate slopes of up to 27 %.
