Operation
NOTE: As the brake pedal is applied, and if it is
pressed all the way to the floor, a mechanical
lock will engage and hold the pedal in the fully
applied position (1, Figure 32). Step on the
release lever and the brake pedal will return to
the upright position.
7. After traveling a long distance, the front attachment,
outriggers or dozer blade may begin to drift due to normal
internal hydraulic leakage. Position the machine in a safe
location and move the function lock to the full front function
position and reposition the front attachment, outriggers or
dozer blade.
Traveling On A Work Site
1. Avoid obstacles, never drive over them.
2. Keep away from the shoulders or edges of slopes or
excavations.
3. Always travel directly up or down a slope, never sideways.
4. Avoid changing directions or sudden starts or stops on a
slope.
5. On a slope, make sure to fully extend the arm and lower
the boom until the bucket is 20 – 30 cm (8" – 12") above
the ground. (See Figure 34 on page 3-19.) If the machine
starts to slide or slip, lower the bucket to the ground to
regain control. If the engine stalls, lower the bucket, make
sure that all controls are in the "NEUTRAL" position and
restart the engine.

WARNING!
When traveling, keep bucket from 200 - 300 mm (8 - 12 in)
above ground.
Do not travel backwards on a slope.
Never turn or travel crosswise on a slope.
Choose a safe alternate route before climbing a slope.
If excavator starts to slip or becomes unstable, lower the
bucket immediately into the ground using it as a brake.
Avoid working on slopes, because there is a danger of
overturning by coming unbalance while swinging and
performing front attachment operations.
It is very dangerous to swing towards bottom of slope with
a loaded bucket.
In unavoidable cases level the slope with fill soil, to make
the vehicle as horizontal as possible.(Figure 33)
Do not travel on slopes over 30° due to turnover danger.
