Traveling on a Grade
When traveling a grade, maximum braking and traction are obtained
with the boom stowed, in position over the rear axle, and in line with
the direction of travel. Drive the machine forward when climbing a
grade, and in reverse when descending a grade. Do not exceed the
machine's maximum rated gradability.
IF THE BOOM IS OVER THE FRONT (STEER) AXLE, DIRECTION OF STEER AND DRIVE
MOVEMENT WILL BE OPPOSITE FROM THE MOVEMENT OF THE CONTROLS.

Tower boom length ≤ 4"(100mm)
Main boom angle (With tower in transport position) ≤ 3°
Main boom length ≤ 4" (100mm)
The operator must be driving the machine (forward or reverse) in
