NOTES
The steering characteristics change proportional to the speed driven and the laden weight. The
lightly loaded machine can be steered with lighter lever operation. With higher loading of the
steering lever to control with higher pressure.
The highest loadings of the machine is according to the floor on which the machine is used to
adjust.
It is therefore recommended to drive on difficult tracks in a low gear and with caution. In such
situations, the machine to be driven over the entire range in a low gear.
Avoid sharp turns and frequent changes of direction when driving on the road, especially on rough,
tough terrain, which has many sharp, uneven areas, causing high friction.
Although the machine has rubber tracks, please remember, to be careful when working under
adverse weather conditions (ice, rain and snow) or on soils where the machine could be unstable.
When the clutch lever is released, the machine is automatically braked and stops.
If the machine is stopped on steep slopes, one of the tracks must be secured with a wedge.
