DRIVING THE MACHINE
4-1
TRAVEL LEVERS AND PEDALS
Travel operation can be performed with either the levers or
pedals.
WARNING: In the standard traveling position, the
front idlers are located in front of the operator’s
seat and the travel motors at the rear. If the travel
motors are positioned at the front of the machine,
when the travel levers or pedals are operated in
the direction as illustrated on the operation de-
cals, the travel direction of the machine will be
reversed. Be sure to confirm the position of the
travel motors before traveling.
NOTE: Travel lever dampers are provided for smooth
control. In extremely cold weather (lower than
-20 °C (-68 °F)), the travel lever (or pedal) will
become heavy to operate. This is caused by
increase in oil viscosity which is not abnormal.
•
Forward/Reverse Travel
Move both levers (or pedals) forward together to travel
forward.
Pull the levers (or pedals) back together to travel in
reverse. The travel speed can be controlled by ad-
justing the lever (or pedal) operating stroke.
•
Ascending/Descending Slopes
The machine gradeability is 30
°
(58%). Slowly operate
the travel levers (or pedals) when descending a slope.
When the travel levers are placed in neutral, the travel
brakes are automatically applied to stop the machine.
NOTE: The travel pedal on this machine is a folding
type. When traveling the machine using the
travel pedals, unfold the pedals.
