OPERATION
CAUTIONS ON TRAVELING ON SLOPES
• Never travel on slopes that are too
steep for the machine to maintain its
stability. (maximum gradeability: 30°,
lateral tipping angle: 10°) Note that in
reality, the machine’s stability becomes
lower than the above values depending
on the working condition.
•
When traveling on slopes, lower the
bucket to a height of 20 to 30 cm (8 to
12 in.) above the ground. When climbing
a steep slope, extend the hoe
attachment to the fr
ont. In emergencies,
lower the bucket to the ground and stop
the machine.
•
When traveling on slopes or grades,
drive slowly in 1st (low) speed.
•
When climbing a hill, keep the
operator’s seat facing the hillside. When
descending a hill, keep the operator’s
seat facing the downhill direction. In
either case, travel must be done while
paying attention to the ground in front
of the machine.
•
Do not descend slopes in reverse.
CAUTIONS ON OPERATING
• Do not change directions on slopes or
traverse slopes. First return to a flat
surface, and then take an alternative
path.
• The machine may slip sideways even on
a slight slope if they are covered with
grass or dead leaves, or when traveling
on a wet metal plate or frozen surfaces.
Do not allow the machine to position
sideways to slopes.
