General notices regarding work operation
Drive operation
Traveling over obstacles (rocks, tree stumps etc.) can put a heavy load on
the travel gear or the tracks, and cause damage. Avoid traveling over
obstacles if possible.
If it cannot be avoided, lower the boom to ground level and travel over the
obstacle with the tracks at low speed.
Drive operation in high speed
Travel slowly on rough terrain and avoid starting and stopping machine
travel abruptly as well as changing direction suddenly.
The stabilizer blade must be at the front when traveling in high speed.
Operation in water
Do not immerse the rear end of the machine in water. Bear this in mind in
particular when leaving water, in order not to damage the machine.
Operation in salt water is prohibited.
Water must not reach any farther than the upper edge of the tensioning
wheel.
Lubricate lubrication points again that were immersed in water for a longer
time in order to expel the old grease.
Do not immerse the live ring or the upper carriage in water.
