Uphill Starts on a Steep Slope
Driving Downhill
Use the engine's ability to brake when traveling downhill.
Never rely on the brakes only and never travel downhill with the gears in neutral.
CAUTION:
When working in hilly terrain, the risk of machine damage - rolling over and injury - is
significantly increased. Environmental conditions must be taken into account.
When towing trailers and semi-trailers in hilly terrain, make sure that the brakes of these
machines are in working order and in perfect condition. To drive down the hill, use the braking
action of the engine in combination with a lower gear.
Operation of the Diff-Lock
Although the differential lock is a very useful function, care should be taken to use it as improper use can
lead to dangerous situations. The differential lock is only used in situations where one of the rear wheels
does not have sufficient traction and the machine is on an unpaved surface.
WARNING
Only engage the differential lock at low engine speeds, direct driving and low speeds.
If the differential lock is not disengaged when the pedal is released during driving straight,
alternately brake with the left and right pedals until it is disengaged.
Do not attempt to lock or use the differential lock in sharp turns, as this may cause serious
damage to the mechanism.
With the pedals connected together push down on the
brake pedals and push down the clutch.
Set all gear levers to low and the throttle to medium
engine speed.
Release the clutch and as it engages release the brake
pedals.
Adjust the throttle to the required speed.
