12. OPERATION
12.8 STEERING THE MACHINE
WARNING
If the machine is turned at high speed or on a steep slope, there
is danger that it will turn over, so do not operate the steering
in such conditions.
CAUTION
Do not continue to apply force to the steering wheel when it has
been turned fully to the left or right. This will make the oil
temperature in the circuit rise and will cause overheating.
When traveling, turn steering wheel 1 in the direction of turning.
When traveling around a curve, release the accelerator pedal
before entering the curve, shift down to a lower speed range, then
depress the accelerator pedal to travel around the curve. Never coast
around the curves at high speed.
REMARK
‡ The angle of the steering wheel may change (the position of the
spoke may change slightly) when the machine is traveling, but
this is not a failure.
‡ If force is applied to the steering wheel when the tires have been
turned fully to the left or right, the steering wheel will turn a little
at a time, but this is not a failure.
