When reversing uphill, do not steer when
transferring from the level surface to the slope, if
this is unavoidable, perform the maneuver
gradually.
Do not move along the edge of a slope or on
uneven ground with one track in the horizontal
position and the other inclined or partially raised
(When machine is inclined in excess of 10º). To
avoid risk of track damage, always proceed with
both tracks traveling on the same horizontal plane.
When the machine maneuver over an obstacle, a
space is created between the bearing roller and the
track. This can cause the track to come off its seat.
The same situation can occur in reverse when a
space is created between bearing roller, idler roller,
and track. to eliminate this risk, track guides are
provided on the front part of the undercarriage.
If the machine changes direction, and the track
cannot move sideways due to the presence of an
obstacle, there is a risk that the track can be
damaged or come off its seat; whenever possible
avoid turning the machine when it is against an
obstacle, if unavoidable, make maneuvers slowly
and gradually until clear of the object.
