• Do not go down slopes at high speed.
• Do not use the machine (elevation and travel) on an incline higher than the cant or the admissible
gradient.
• Do not drive in reverse (direction opposite the field of vision).
• Do not pull or push objects with the boom.
• Never use the machine in winds exceeding the authorized limit.
• Do not increase the surface area exposed to the wind. The greater the surface area exposed, the more
unstable the machine becomes.
