Operation
Machine travel on slopes
Follow these safety instructions carefully when driving on slopes, in order to avoid acci-
dents.
Specific safety instructions
☞
Tilt in the skip during machine operation.
☞
Always drive in low speed on slopes!
➥
This also ensures more precise and smooth movements of the steering system.
• During machine travel and operation on slopes or across obstacles,
• Do not steer or drive across slopes.
☞
If possible, avoid changing direction during machine travel and operation on slopes
☞
During machine operation, ensure that you can stop safely any time if the machine
starts to slip or if it becomes unstable.
• Tilting, swiveling or using the skip on slopes can cause the machine to lose its balance
and to tip over.
☞
Therefore avoid these activities.
☞
Do not drive on slopes steeper than 15°, otherwise the machine can tip over.
☞
Do not drive across slopes steeper than 10° otherwise the machine can tip over later-
ally.
• If the tracks slip when driving uphill and it is no longer possible to move on with the
force of the tracks alone.
☞
Do not use any auxiliary means to move the machine otherwise it can tip over.
☞
Always move straight ahead when performing uphill or downhill machine travel. Per-
forming machine travel diagonally or at an angle to the slope is very hazardous.
☞
Avoid changing direction on slopes or driving across a slope.
☞
Perform machine travel slowly in meadows, on leaves or wet steel plates. The machine
can slip even if the ground is level. If the engine stops as you drive across a slope,
immediately put the control levers to neutral position and start the engine again.
