PRECAUTIONS DURING OPERATION SAFETY WARNING: For reasons of safety, always follow these safety precautions.. Avoid travelling over obstacles as far as possible. If the machine has to travel over an obstacle, keep the work equip- ment as close to the ground as possible and travel at low speed. Never travel over obstacles which make the machine tilt strongly (10 ° or more). When travelling or carrying out operations, always keep your distance from other machines or structures to avoid coming into contact with them. NEVER be in water which is in excess of the permissible water depth. Permissible water depth See "PRECAUTIONS FOR OPERATION".
When passing over bridges or structures on private land, check first that the structure is strong enough to support the mass of the machine. When travelling on public roads, check first with the relevant authorities and follow their instructions. TRAVELING ON SLOPES Travelling on slopes could result in the machine tipping over or slipping to the side. When travelling on slopes, keep the bucket approximately 20 - 30 cm above the ground. In case of emergency, quickly lower the bucket to the ground to help the machine to stop. Do not turn on slopes or travel across slopes. Always go down to a flat place to perform these operations.
AA307707C Method of travelling on slopes see “PRECAUTIONS WHEN TRAVELING UP OR DOWN HILLS” on page 136. Do not travel on grass, fallen leaves, or wet steel plates. Even slight slopes may cause the machine to slip to the side, so travel at low speed and make sure that the machine is always travelling directly up or down the slope. If the engine stops on a slope, place the travel lever at the neutral position and lower the bucket to the ground. Do not operate the steering. There is danger that the machine will turn under its own weight. CORRECT INCORRECT AE081230 30 AA30708C
