•
Avoid swinging the upperstructure on slopes. Never
attempt to swing the upperstructure downhill. The
machine may tip over. If swinging uphill is unavoidable,
carefully operate the upperstructure and boom at slow
speed.
•
If the engine stalls on a slope, immediately lower the
bucket to the ground. Return the control levers to
neutral. Then, restart the engine.
•
Be sure to thoroughly warm up the machine before
ascending steep slopes. If hydraulic oil has not warmed
up sufciently, sufcient performance may not be
obtained.
•
Use a signal person when moving, swinging or
operating the machine in congested areas. Coordinate
hand signals before starting the machine.
•
Before moving machine, determine which way to move
travel pedals/levers for the direction you want to go.
When the travel motors are in the rear, pushing down
on the front of the travel pedals or pushing the levers
forward moves the machine forward, towards the idlers.
An arrow-mark seal is stuck on the inside surface of the
side frame to indicate the machine front direction.
•
Select a travel route that is as at as possible. Steer the
machine as straight as possible, making small gradual
changes in direction.
•
Before traveling on them, check the strengths of bridges
and road shoulders, and reinforce if necessary.
•
Use wood plates in order not to damage the road
surface. Be careful of steering when operating on
asphalt roads in summer.
•
When crossing train tracks, use wood plates in order
not to damage them.
•
Do not make contact with electric wires or bridges.
•
When crossing a river, measure the depth of the river
using the bucket, and cross slowly. Do not cross the
river when the depth of the river is deeper than the
upper edge of the upper roller.
•
When traveling on rough terrain, reduce engine speed.
Select slow travel speed. Slower speed will reduce
possible damage to the machine.
•
Avoid operations that may damage the track and
undercarriage components.
•
During freezing weather, always clean snow and ice
from track shoes before loading and unloading machine,
to prevent the machine from slipping.

Operating on Slopes
Avoid side slope travel whenever possible. When working
on steep slopes, travel as straight up and down as
possible to prevent machine tip over.
Select low gear speed before starting down slope. The
slope on which you can operate safely will be limited by
ground condition and the load being handled.
Be alert to wind direction and velocity.
