Preparations for traveling on slopes
Always travel straight ahead on slopes.
During changing position, do not exceed a maximum gradient angle of 15°
and a maximum lateral angle of inclination of 10°.
Change position on level ground and then travel straight-ahead onto the
slope.
Traveling uphill
During traveling uphill, the front side must face uphill.
Set the stabilizer blade uphill.
Raise the boom about 20 – 30 cm (8 – 12 in) off the ground and position it
straight ahead at the center of the machine.
Do not exceed a maximum gradient angle of 15°.
Traveling downhill
During traveling downhill, the front side must face downhill.
Set the stabilizer blade downhill.
Raise the boom about 20 – 30 cm (8 – 12 in) off the ground and position it
straight ahead at the center of the machine.
Do not exceed a maximum sloping angle of 15°.
