Operating Precautions
Travel safety
¡
Travel with the dozer blade up, the hoe
attachment folded as shown on the
diagram, and the bucket raised 30 to 40
cm (12 to 16 in.) from the ground.
¡
Do not slew (swing) while traveling. If you
must operate the hoe attachment while
traveling, operate at speeds slow enough
so you have complete control at all times.
Check the position of the
undercarriage (tracks) before
traveling
Before operating the travel levers, check to
make sure that the dozer blade is to the front
of the operator’s seat. BE AWARE that when
the dozer blade is to the rear of the operator’s
seat, the travel levers operate in the opposite
direction to when the dozer blade is in the
front.
(12 to 16 in.)

When a load greater than a set value is
applied during 2nd speed (high speed)
travel, the speed will automatically slow
down by switching to 1st speed (low
speed).
Thereafter, when the load becomes lighter,
the speed will increase by returning to 2nd
speed (high speed). Exercise due caution
since the travel speed changes
automatically.
¡
Avoid crossing over obstacles whenever
possible. If you must do so, keep the hoe
attachment close to the ground and travel
slowly. Never cross obstacles if they will
seriously tilt the machine (to an angle of
10
°
or greater).
¡
On uneven ground, travel at low speed
and avoid accelerating, stopping or
changing directions abruptly.
¡
When roading a machine, know and use
the signaling devices required on the
machine. Provide an escort for road travel
when required.
