4.2.2 Drive operation
Traveling is limited by two factors:
a)
Gradeability, which is the percent of grade the machine can climb;
b)
Side slope, which is the angle of the slope the machine can be driven across.
Note: Identify the allowable range of slope and side slope rating. All ratings for gradeability and
side slope are based upon the machine's upper boom being in the stowed position, fully lowered
and retracted.
Do not drive with upper boom out of transport mode except on a smooth, firm level surface.
To avoid loss of travel control or upset on grades and side slopes exceeding those specified on
machine nameplate.
Do not drive on side slopes which exceed 5 degrees with platform elevated, do not drive on side
slopes which exceed 24 degrees in stowed position.
The user should confirm the control of driving direction before driving.
Be extremely careful when driving in reverse or when driving with platform elevated at all times.
