MACHINE OPERATIONS AND CONTROLS 3.3.14 PARKING MACHINE Avoid stopping suddenly. Give yourself ample room when stopping. Park the machine on the firm, level ground. Avoid parking the machine on slopes. If it is unavoidably necessary to park the machine on a slope, put blocks under the tracks and dig the work equipment into the ground surface to stop the machine from moving. If the control levers are touched by accident, the work equipment or machine may move suddenly, and this may lead to a serious accident. Before standing up from the operator's seat, always set the safety lock lever se- curely to the LOCK position. Set the blade on the downhill side and lower it to the ground. 1.
