Advice when driving on a steep slope
Users of City Ranger 2250 have reported that, from time to time, they feel that the machine does not accelerate properly when
driving up an incline. The machine is designed to drive on an incline of no more than 22%. However, from experience we know that,
under certain conditions, this machine can in fact cope with a steeper incline. Nilfisk has the following advice when driving up a steep
incline:
· Set the throttle to min. 2400.
· Then regulate the speed of the machine using the foot pedal.
· The function of the foot pedal can be compared to changing gear up or down. The more you press down on the pedal, the higher the
gear - the less you press down on the pedal, the lower the gear.
