In certain driving conditions or circumstances the machine is at an increased risk of track
damage and/or losing a track during manoeuvres; the following advice should be observed
to avoid or reduce this risk.
Never operate the machine in poor lighting conditions
Only work in good lighting conditions; you must have a clear
view of the machine and the entire work area at all times. If
necessary use suitable artificial lighting that complies with
local rules and regulations.
Do not smoke near the machine
Fuels, oils and lubricants are flammable – keep naked flames
away from the machine at all times.
Keep tracks correctly tensioned at all times
Incorrect track tension will increase the risk of track
damage or losing a track.
Do not move along the edge of a slope, or on uneven ground,
with one track in the horizontal position and the other inclined
or partially raised when machine is inclined in excess of 10°.
To avoid risk of track damage, always proceed with both tracks
travelling on the same horizontal plane.
