SAFETY
Operating Precautions
Cautions on traveling on slopes
When traveling on slopes or grades, be
careful that the machine does not tip (roll)
over or slide.
¡
Never exceed the machine’s stability
capabilities (maximum gradeability - 30
°
,
lateral tipping angle - 15
°
). Also note that
when actual working area conditions are
poor the machine’s stability capabilities
may be lower.
¡
When traveling on slopes or grades, lower
the bucket to a height of 20 to 30 cm (8 to
12 in.) off the ground. In emergencies,
lower the bucket to the ground and stop
the machine.
¡
When traveling on slopes or grades, move
slowly in first gear (low speed).
¡
Do not travel down slopes in reverse.
¡
On grass, dead leaves, wet metal or frozen
surfaces, the machine may slide sideways
even on very gentle slopes. Make sure
the machine never faces sideways with
respect to the slope.
¡
Do not change directions or cross slopes
sideways. First return to a flat surface then
redirect the machine.
Operate on snow or ice with extra
care
¡
When traveling on snow or frozen
surfaces, keep the machine travel speed
down and avoid accelerating, stopping or
changing directions abruptly.
¡
Remember that the road shoulder, fences,
etc., may be buried in the snow and not
visible.
¡
Lower the dozer blade when parked on
unsure ground conditions.
