Operation
Driving on slopes with a loaded skip
Proceed as follows to prevent the machine from tipping over or slipping sideways:
☞
When driving on slopes (> 20 %) with a loaded skip, the skip must always face uphill
since the heavier part of the machine – in this case the load in the skip – must face
uphill to prevent the machine from tipping over.
WARNUNG
WARNING
W
Accident hazard due to tipping over or slipping of the
machine on slopes!
Can cause severe injury or death.
• Travel on slopes only on firm and level ground.
• Do not reverse down slopes.
• Traveling diagonally is prohibited.
Machine travel on slopes with an empty skip
☞
When traveling on slopes (> 20 %) with an empty skip, the skip must always face down-
hill since the heavier part of the machine – in this case the engine – must face uphill to
prevent the machine from tipping over.
Machine travel across slopes
☞
Do not travel across slopes with lateral inclinations steeper than 20 %!
☞
When traveling across slopes with lateral inclinations up to 20 %, tilt out the skip only
uphill for stability reasons.
