Driver’s Training and Operation 

16 

Demonstrate and instruct the trainee on the following topics: 

PHASE I: Driving the machine in Low Gear 

Refer to 

FIGURE 8 

and 

FIGURE 9 

for techniques and principles to 

use while maneuvering and driving. 
Initial training should take place outdoors in a flat open area free of 

obstructions with the machine in 

LOW GEAR 

and the Hopper and 

Tanks empty. Initial training should include the following: 
To Drive forward: 

 

Safely start the machine. 

 

Safely step onto the operator platform. 

 

Shift into 

LOW GEAR

 

Unlock Brakes 

 

Pull the Throttle/Clutch Lever. 

 

To stop: 

 

Release the Throttle/Clutch Lever. 

 

Pull the Rear Brake Lever first. 

 

Pull the Front Brake Lever. 

 

To turn right:  

 

Pull back on the right handle while simultaneously pushing 
forward on the left handle. A Stop prevents the machine 

from jack-knifing. 

 

Always lean into the turns by shifting your body weight to 
the inside of the turn. 

 

To turn left:  

 

Reverse the procedure. 

Principles of the Balance Zone (BP) 

 

 

Side Balance Zone 
 

The driver’s side-to-side 

BALANCE 

POINT

 is the centerline passing 

vertically through his nose. The 

15 

DEGREE

 sidelines indicate the 

maximum limits of the side-to-side 

BALANCE ZONE

.   

 

Front/ Rear Balance Zone 

 

The driver’s front-to-rear 

BALANCE 

POINT

 is the centerline passing 

vertically through his body. The 

15 

DEGREE

 sidelines indicate the 

maximum limits of the front-to-back 

BALANCE ZONE

.   

 

Riding across a 15 degree slope 

 

When the driver’s 

BALANCE POINT 

is directly over the control levers, he 

has reached the sideline of the side-

to-side safe 

BALANCE ZONE

.  

 

Climbing a 15 degree slope 

 

When the front of the driver is even 
with the handlebars, he has reached 

the front sideline of the 

FRONT 

BALANCE ZONE

.  

 

Descending a 15 degree slope 

 

When the driver’s arms are full 
extended and he must squat to 

reach his 

BALANCE POINT

, he has 

reached the rear sideline of the 

REAR BALANCE ZONE

.

When you turn the machine, point the front of 

the machine in the direction of the turn. Lean 

towards the pivot point side of the turn to shift 
your body weight to the inside of the turn.

 

 
 

 

When you drive up a slope, first stop and 

shift the machine into 

LOW GEAR 

(

L

). Lean 

forward, into the incline as you drive up the 

slope.

 

 

When you drive down a slope, first stop and 

shift the machine into 

LOW GEAR 

(

L

). Lean 

to the rear, into the incline, as you drive down 

the slope.

 

 
 

 

When you are driving the machine across a 

slope, first stop and shift the machine into 

LOW GEAR 

(

L

). Lean into the hill as you 

travel across the slope.

 

 

On slopes over 

15 DEGREES

; stop, release, 

and lower the handlebar. Walk behind the 

machine. Never ride the Triumph on inclines 

or slopes greater the 

15 DEGREES

exceed 

15 DEGREES

. You instinctively stand at your 

BALANCE POINT

. When your 

BALANCE POINT 

is outside 

the 

BALANCE ZONE

, the slope is over 

15 DEGREES

. Know 

the limits of your 

BALANCE ZONE
