PRECAUTIONS WHEN OPERATING
AG7A032PE
Dozer blade
Before operating the travel levers, make sure
that the dozer blade is to the front of the
operator’s seat. Remember that when the
dozer blade is to the rear of the operator’s
seat, the travel levers must be operated in
the reverse direction from when the blade is
to the front.
Travel safely
• Travel with the dozer blade raised, the hoe
attachment folded as shown on the figure
above, and the bucket raised 30 to 40 cm
(12 to 16 in.) above the ground.
• Do not slew while traveling. If you must
operate the hoe attachment while traveling,
operate at speeds slow enough so you
have complete control at all times.
• Avoid crossing over obstacles whenever
possible. If you must do so, keep the hoe
attachment close to the ground level and
travel slowly. Never cross obstacles which
will tilt the machine to an angle of 10° or
greater.
• On uneven ground, maintain the low speed
and avoid starting, stopping or changing
directions abruptly. Otherwise, the working
equipment may come in contact with the
ground, causing the machine to lose its
balance and get damaged or to damage
the structures in the surrounding area.
