EXCAVATOR OPERATION34
UP AND DOWNHILL DRIVING
To avoid personal injury:
A When travelling up or down a slope, use extra
caution and follow the instructions below.
While traveling uphill, keep the lower edge of the bucket
approx. 20 to 40 cm (8 to 16 in.) above the ground.
Although the KUBOTA excavator will not slip easily
because of the tracks, it is safer to let the bucket slide over
the ground while traveling downhill. Always choose slow
speed for uphill and downhill traveling.
