Komatsu WA800-1 Operation & Maintenance Manual page 53

OPERATING YOUR MACHINE
If the engine is abruptly stopped
before it has cooled down,
engine life may be greatly
shortened. Consequently, do not
abruptly stop the engine apart
from an emergency.
In particular, if the engine has
overheated, do not abruptly stop
it but run it at medium speed to
allow it to cool gradually, then
stop it.
MAXIMUM DEPTH OF WATER
When working in water or on
swampy ground, do not let the
water come above the bottom of
the axle housing.
* After finishing the operation,
wash and check the lubricating
points.

IF WHEEL BRAKE DOES NOT

If the machine is not stopped by
depressing brake pedal, use the
parking brake to stop the machine.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN DRIVING
UP OR DOWN SLOPES
Lower the center of gravity when
turning.
When turning on slopes, lower
the work equipment to lower the
center of gravity before turning. It is
dangerous to turn the machine with
the work equipment raised.
