6.4 Working on uneven ground
Extra caution is needed when using the equipment on inclined terrains and slopes. Drive slowly especially on
inclined, uneven, or slippery surfaces, and avoid sudden changes in speed or direction. Operate the controls
of the loader with careful and smooth movements. Watch out for ditches, holes on the ground, and other
obstacles, as hitting an obstacle may cause the loader to tip over.
Maximum lifting capacity can not be achieved on inclined terrain. On horizontally tilted terrain the load must
not be lifted high. The loader frame articulation should be kept straight when lifting heavy loads; turning the
load during lifting operation will affect the stability of the loader and may lead to overturning of the machine.
6.5 Transport position
When driving with the loader, keep the Timber
grab as low and close to the loader as possible
as shown in adjacent figure.
Adjust the drive speed according to the operating
conditions and surface. Always drive slowly while
operating the Timber grab.
When driving with the load, set the Timber grab to correct position according to load to be transported. Make
sure that the load does not block the visibility during transport drive. Keep load low and ensure balance of the
loader.
CAUTION
Keep the loader stable. Always transport the attachment as low and close to the ground
as possible. Keep the telescopic boom retracted during transport drive.
