OPERATION
Operating Procedures
Cautions on Use in Water
If you leave water at a sharp angle, the rear
of the machine may be submerged, exposing
the radiator fan to water and damaging them.
Do not let the rear of the machine get
submerged.
¡
Allowable water depth
In water, only use the machine up to a
depth at which the water comes up to the
middle of the carrier roller (1).
¡
When greasing places used under water
for long periods of time, apply enough
grease so that the old grease is expelled.
¡
Never submerge the slew bearing or main
body in water or sand. If the slew bearing
or main body should get submerged,
contact a Takeuchi sales or service outlet
for inspection.
Cautions on Traveling on Slopes
WARNING
¡
¡
¡
¡
¡
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.
¡
¡
¡
¡
¡
Do not change directions or cross
slopes sideways. First return to a flat
surface then redirect the machine.
¡
¡
¡
¡
¡
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.
