undercarriage of the machine. On a rainy day, in particular, be extremely careful since the ramp surface is
slippery.
• Always turn the auto-deceleration switch OFF (cancel). If the machine is operated with the auto-decelera-
tion system ON (activated), there is danger that the engine speed will suddenly rise, the machine will sud-
denly move off, or the machine travel speed will become faster.
• Run the engine at low idle and drive the machine slowly at low speed.
• When on the ramps, do not operate any lever except for the travel lever (travel forward and reverse).
• Never correct your steering on the ramps. If necessary, drive off the ramps onto the ground, correct the di-
rection, then enter the ramps again.
• The center of gravity of the machine will change suddenly at the joint between the ramps and the loading
platform, and there is danger of the machine losing its balance. Drive slowly over this point.
• When loading or unloading to an embankment or platform, make sure that it has suitable width, strength,
and grade.
• When swinging the upper structure on the loading platform, lower the work equipment, retract it, and per-
form the operation slowly.
• Always fold the mirrors and stow the radio antenna.
For machines equipped with a cab, always lock the door after loading the machine. To prevent the door
from opening during transportation.
• When it is necessary to remove handrails and steps, take care not to lose removed handrails and steps.
Install the removed handrails and steps securely.
TOWING AND BEING TOWED
PRECAUTIONS FOR TOWING AND BEING TOWED
Always use the correct towing equipment and towing method. Any mistake in the selection of the wire rope or
drawbar or the method of towing a disabled machine and being towed may lead to serious personal injury or
death.
• Always confirm that the wire rope or drawbar used for towing has ample strength for the weight of the ma-
chine being towed.
• Never use the wire rope which has cut strands (A), re-
duced diameter (B), or kinks (C). There is a danger that
the rope may break during the towing operation.
• Always wear leather gloves when handling the wire rope.
• Never tow a machine on a slope.
• During the towing operation, never stand between the tow-
ing machine and the machine being towed.
