speed. Drive the machine while paying attention to the
visibility ahead and in the opposite driving lane.

ments. If any abnormality is recognized, immediately stop
the machine and check the machine for the cause of the
trouble.
• When required to drive on the road shoulder or in tight

• Slowly drive in or turn a crossing while paying attention
to the visibility ahead and in the opposite driving lane.
1. Do not submerge the front and rear axles, transmission,
parking brake, or front and rear propeller shafts in water
or mud. Avoid driving in water as much as possible.
2. If driving in water or mud is unavoidable, do not allow
the machine to be submerged deeper than allowable
depth (A) (up to the bottom of the axle housing). Reduce
the allowable depth in case the river bed is feared to be
rugged or water is flowing fast.
3. When driving/operating on muddy ground, mud can
easily accumulate on the frame even if the frame is not
heavily submerged in mud, Check regularly and clean as
necessary.
NOTE: After operation is complete, be sure to wash and lubri
