2.2.3 Driving the machine on a slope
• Drive the machine carefully on a slope to avoid any
tipping over or slipping to the side.
• When driving the machine on a slope, keep the buc-
ket between 20 and 30 cm above the ground to be able
to lower it to the ground and stop the machine in the
event of an emergency.
WARNING
Never travel across a slope of 20° or more as the
machine may tip over.
• Never turn the machine on a slope and do not move
it across a slope. Descend to flat ground and then turn.
Note
For the maximum acceptable slope:
• The machine will slide easily on grass, dead leaves or a damp metal plate, even with a
slight tilt. Drive the machine carefully at low speed to prevent it slipping.
WARNING
The machine may lose its balance and tip over when rotating the upper part or when the
equipment is working on a slope.
Do not pivot the upper structure with a load in the bucket. If the rotation cannot be avoi-
ded, provide a bank to keep the machine as horizontal as possible. Then turn the upper
structure.
Braking when descending on a slope
• When going downhill, you can automatically stop the machine by putting the travel levers
in neutral.
If the engine stops
• If the engine stops when climbing an incline, position the travel levers in the neutral posi-
tion and lift the locking lever, then stop the machine and restart the engine. If the machine
does not start, pull the locking lever and check the fuel level.
