3.2.6 AVOID EXCAVATION WORK WHILE FLOATING
The amphibious excavator is designed to work on soft ground. Therefore, avoid letting it float
in water while working. Performing the digging operation while floating will cause tipping over.
Without extra side pontoons and spud poles, in-water excavation is only allowed at a 2-meter
depth. Refer to Figure 3.4.
