Notes on travel
Note: when moving, rotating or operating the machine in narrow area, one signaler
is sure to be employed. Before starting the machine, hand signs should be coordinated.
a)
Before moving the machine, the operator should be clear how to operate the treading pedal/control
lever towards the desired direction. When treading motor is at the rear, the machine will move
forward in the direction of guidance wheel by stepping down the front of treading pedal or pushing
forward the treading control lever.
b)
Try to choose level ground and drive the machine in straight line, change the direction slowly and
slightly.
c)
Before the travel, check the strength of bridge and groundwork, reinforce them if necessary.
d)
To avoid of damage on road surface, it is advisable to use wooden board. When treading on pitch road
in summer, pay more attention to the drive.
e)
When crossing the rail, it is advisable to use wooden board to avoid of damage on road surface.
f)
Don’t let the machine contact with the edge of bridge.
g)
When crossing the river, the operator should measure the depth of river with bucket and cross the
river slowly. Don’t cross the river when the water exceeds the top edge of supporting-chain wheel.
h)
When treading on uneven ground, engine speed should be decreased and the slow treading mode
should be chosen to reduce the possibility of damage on the machine.
i)
Don’t travel across some obstruction, such as mud block, stone and metallic objects around the
machine. While running, other people are not allowed to stay around the machine.
j)
When running on slope, the machine may skid or turn over, causing some severe injury or even death.
k)
When upgrading or downgrading, bucket should be placed in the direction of treading with a distance
of 0.2-0.3 meters from the ground (see A in the picture below).
l)
If the machine begins to skid or becomes unstable, the bucket must be lowered immediately.
m)
Crossing the slope sideling or changing the direction may lead to the danger of side-slipping or
turning over the machine, for the moment, it is better to travel safely through a detour after landing on
even ground
n)
Try to avoid of the operation, which may damage the crawler and lower machine parts.
