Travel Operation
Travel operation of this machine is controlled by using
levers and pedals.
d
WARNING: If the travel motors are located at the front
of the machine, the machine will move in the reverse
direction to that shown on the operation instruction
decal. Normal travel operation is when the travel
motor is at the rear, and the front idler is at the front of
the machine.

NOTE:
An arrow-mark seal is stuck on the inside surface of the side
frame to indicate the machine front direction.
A travel lever damper is provided on this machine to ensure
smooth travel operation. Therefore, the travel lever or pedal
may become heavier in extreme cold (-20 °C or below). This
is caused by increase in oil viscosity, not a malfunction.
Forward/Reverse Travel
Push down both left and right levers (or both pedals)
frontward to travel the machine forward. Pull down the two
levers (or pedals) rearward to travel the machine in reverse.
Travel speed can be controlled by the operation stroke of
the travel levers and pedals.
Ascend/Descend Slopes
Never attempt to ascend or descend slopes steeper than 35
degrees (70 %).
Slowly operate the travel levers (or pedals) when
descending a slope. When the travel levers are placed in the
neutral position, brakes are automatically applied and the
machine stops.
