SAFETY MACHINE OPERATION

MOVING IN GRADIENTS 2
q
Operations on slopes and on river or lake banks with damp
ground may result in the tipping over or slipping of the
machine.
q
On hills, banks or slopes, keep the bucket very close to the
ground (20-30 cm from the ground) and in case of
emergency quickly lower it to the ground to help the
machine stop.
q
When travelling up a steep slope, extend the work
equipment to the front to improve the balance, keep the
work equipment approximately 20 to -30 cm (8 to 12 in)
above the ground, and travel at low speed.
q
When travelling downhill, lower the engine speed, keep the
travel lever close to the neutral position, and travel at low
speed.

When travelling downhill, position the machine with the
turret rotated by 180°, so that the sprocket (1) and the
boom are in travelling direction, as shown in the figure, and
proceed at low speed.
q
Do not change direction on slopes; side movements must
be carried out on level ground, or with inclination not
exceeding 10° .
q
Do not move on slopes with inclination exceeding 15°,
since the machine may overturn.
q
When the fuel level indicator reaches the red reserve area
during work on a slope, immediately provide for refuelling;
due to the inclination of the machine, the engine may suck
in air and suddenly stop, which represents a grave risk for
the safety of the operator and of the persons before the
machine.
q
If the engine should stop all of a sudden, immediately lower
the bucket to the ground.
