WARNING:
 Always travel the machine slowly.
Before descending a slope, always ensure that
engine control lever (1) is in the slow idle position,
and then reduce the engine speed. Turn the travel
mode switch (2) to slow speed for ZX26U-5A.
 Never steer while driving up or down a ramp as it is
extremely dangerous and may cause the machine to
turnover. NEVER attempt to change directions whilst
positioned on the ramp. If repositioning is necessary,
first move back to the ground or flatbed, modify
traveling direction, and begin to drive again.
 The top end of the ramp where it meets the flatbed is
a sudden bump. Take care when traveling over it as
the balance may be lost.
 Extreme care must be taken when swinging the
upper structure when the machine is on the truck
flatbed. If the front attachment is fitted, swing slowly
with the arm fully roll-in underneath the boom being
careful not to loose the balance of the machine.
