Snow can hide obstacles and objects, and cover holes
dug-out areas and ditches. Proceed with caution when
working in snowy conditions. Operation of the vehicle

ction of obstacles and possible dangers along the path

main road; that which is hidden at the sides of the road
may cause vehicle overturning or damage to various
components.

rous. Operate with caution, reducing vehicle speed as
much as possible and engaging levers slowly.

snow, it may overturn or remain buried. Do not venture
from the road and avoid remaining entrapped or buried
