OPERATION
OPERATING PROCEDURES
This dozer blade is designed for simple earth
pushing. Do not dig down deeply with the
dozer blade. Doing so could damage the
dozer blade and undercarriage.
PRECAUTIONS FOR OPERATION
Precautions on traveling
Traveling over obstacles (rocks, stumps, etc.)
may put a great load on the machine body
and may cause damage to it. Avoid crossing
over obstacles whenever possible. If you
must do so, keep the hoe attachment near
the ground, travel at a low speed, and go
over the obstacle at the center of the tires.
Precautions when traveling at high speed
• On uneven ground, maintain the low speed
and avoid starting, stopping or changing
directions abruptly.
• When traveling at high speed, do so with
the steering device set at the front.
