PARKING THE MACHINE
• Park the machine on a flat, rigid and
safe ground. Set the parking brake.
If you must park on a slope or incline,
park the machine securely and block
the movement of the machine.
• When parking on a street, use barriers,
caution signs, lights, etc., so that the
machine can easily be seen even at
night to avoid collision with other
vehicles.
• Before leaving the operator’s seat, raise
the safety bar to engage the lock and
stop the engine.

running or the lift arms raised. If the lift
arms are left in a raised position,

the lift arm stopper.

position.

at low speed.
