Komatsu — TRAVELING ON SLOPES

SAFETY When traveling down a slope with the bucket loaded, back the machine down the slope with the bucket facing the top of the incline. Always keep the bucket at least 50 cm (20 in.) above the ground. Never raise the bucket when traveling on a slope. Remark If the machine should start to tip with the bucket loaded, immediately lower the bucket to the ground to help stabilize the machine and lower the center of gravity. Always travel straight up or straight down the slope. Never turn or travel sideways on the slope or incline. Doing so may cause the machine to rollover. Never turn on a slope or travel across a slope. Never change speed ranges when on a slope or hill.

Always set the machine in a low speed range for travel on a hill or slope. Never use the feature buttons when the machine is on a slope or loss of control may result. Always be aware of your travel surfaces. Wet leaves, wet grass, or mud may hinder control of the machine. 1-18 WB140PS-2N WB150PS-2N
