Traveling on Slopes Never jump onto a machine that is running away to stop it. There is a danger of serious injury. Traveling on slopes could result in the machine tipping over or slipping. 20~30 Cm On hills, banks or slopes, carry the bucket approximately 20 - 30 cm (8 - 12 in) above the ground. In case of an emergency, quickly lower the bucket to the ground to help stop machine. 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 machine is always traveling directly up or down the slope. Avoid changing travel direction on a slope.
This could result in tipping or sideslipping of the machine. 20~30 Cm When possible, operate the machine up slopes and downslopes. Avoid operating the machine across the slope, when possible. FG000365 Figure 19 OP001759 1-29 Safety
