Park the machine on firm and level ground. If this is not possi-
ble and it is necessary to park on a slope, position the ma-
chine with the bucket directed downwards and carry out the
following operations:
1 - Rotate the bucket to the dumping position and lower the
arms until thrusting the teeth into the ground.
2 - Stop the engine.
3 - Put wedges or safety blocks under the tracks.
•
Always rest the work equipment on the ground; if it is neces-
sary to park with raised arms, make sure that the safety locks
are engaged.
•
Lock the equipment control by shifting the safety device lever
to the lock position.
•
When leaving the machine, remove the ignition key.
•
If it is necessary to park on public roads, provide for signalling
the presence of the machine according to the local regulations
in force (signalling fires, fences, road works ahead, alternated
direction and direction signs, etc.).
