Operating temperature range
Operate the machine only at ambient temperatures between
−
15 °C (5 °F)
and +45 °C (+113 °F).
Machine travel on slopes
WARNING
Crushing hazard due to tipping over of machine!
A tipping machine can cause serious injury or death.
►
Raise the boom 20 – 30 cm (8 – 12 in) off the ground and position it
straight ahead at the center of the machine.
►
In an emergency, lower the boom immediately to increase stability.
►
Travel on slopes only on firm and level ground.
►
Adapt the travel speed to the prevailing conditions.
►
Pay attention to persons and obstacles.
►
Pay attention to the stability limits of the machine (maximum gradient
angle 15°, maximum lateral angle of inclination 10°).
►
Perform uphill and downhill machine travel only in speed range 1.
►
Never reverse downhill.
►
Ensure that no parts of the body protrude outside the machine.
►
Do not exceed the permissible payloads.
►
Do not turn or swivel the upper carriage and the boom during downhill
or uphill machine operation with a full attachment.
►
Performing machine travel diagonally on slopes is prohibited.
Stones and the humidity in the upper layer of the ground can affect
machine traction and stability.
The machine can slip sideways on gravel or loose, rocky soil. The stability
of the machine can be reduced on rough terrain.
On soft ground, the machine sinks into it or the tracks dig into it. This
increases the machine angle (maximum gradient angle and maximum
lateral angle of inclination), and the machine can tip over.
If the engine dies as you perform uphill or downhill machine travel,
immediately put the control levers to neutral position and restart the
engine.
Observe under all circumstances during uphill or downhill travel:
• Keep the drive levers near the neutral position.
• Perform slow and smooth travel movements.
• Avoid sudden travel movements.
• Reduce the engine speed.
The machine can slip even on gentle slopes if it travels across grass,
leaves, humid metal surfaces, frozen ground or ice.
