Safety lever (control locking lever)
WARNING
q
Before leaving the driver seat, lower the equipment to the ground and shift the safety lever to the
“locked” position (L). If the safety lever is not in the “locked” position (L) and the control levers are
touched by mistake, this may lead to serious injury.
q
If the safety lever is not in the “locked” position (L), the control levers may move, causing accidents or
serious injury. Always make sure that the lever is in the “locked” position (L), as shown in the figure.
q
Even if the safety device lever is in locking position (L), the control of the scraper and the adjustable
track is not locked.
q
When shifting the safety lever, take care to avoid touching the equipment control levers.
The lever activates the safety device to lock the working tools, rotation, travel and accessories (except for the scraper
and the adjustable track). When the lever is pulled upwards, it is in locking position (L).
The safety device is hydraulic, so, even if control levers and pedals move, the working tools and the machine (except
for the scraper and the adjustable track) do not move.
NOTE
q
If the safety lever is not in position (L), the engine cannot be started. Before operating the ignition switch, always
make sure that the safety lever is in the “locked” position. If the engine stops while the safety lever is in “free” po-
sition (F), shift the lever back to the “locked” position before operating the ignition switch.
(F): free
(L): locked
