"Maintenance"
The moment limiting system has been developed to
help the operator to maintain the machine longitudinal
stability. Audible and visual messages are provided
when the limits of longitudinal stability are being
approached.
However this device cannot replace the experience
of the operator. It is up to the user to adopt the
necessary safety measures to work within the rated
limits of the machine.
