Advice when driving on a steep slope
Users of City Ranger 2260 have reported that,
from time to time, they feel that the machine does
not accelerate properly when driving up an incline.
The machine is designed to drive on an incline of
no more than 12°. However, from experience we
know that, under certain conditions, this machine
can in fact cope with a steeper incline, max.21°
max.10min. (Look at 1.1. Safety, page 7)
Egholm has the following advice when driving up
a steep incline:
• Set the throttle to min. 2400 rpm.
• Then regulate the speed of the machine using
the foot pedal.
• The function of the foot pedal can be compared
to changing gear up or down. The more you press
down on the pedal, the higher the gear - the less
you press down on the pedal, the lower the gear.
1.10 Start/stop function for salt
and sandspreader
The start/stop function ensures that the
spreading stops while the machine is stationary
(PTO rear stops), so that the salt and sand
spreader only spreads when the machine is in
motion.
Activate the start/stop function on the control
panel by pressing the PTO rear switch to the right
(“Stop & go”).
Deactivate the start/stop function by pressing the
PTO rear switch back to neutral. (Picture 2)
Remark
The start/stop function only operates
the salt and sand spreader.
If it is attempted used for other
attachments, these attachments will
stop when the machine is stationary.
