WARNING
Risk of accident
Lack of knowledge of the terrain can lead to accidents, e.g. by colliding with snow slabs or concealed
obstacles.
►
The driver should never drive on slopes he is not familiar with.
WARNING
Risk of accident
Do not make any turns as a suddenly released cable may cause serious damage to the snow groom-
er and injury to persons.
►
Always keep the cable taut, even when driving on level terrain, to prevent the cable from lying
on the ground, snow or rocks.
Cable traction force is automatically adjusted by cable traction control. If necessary, the cable traction
force can be manually increased or decreased using the joystick. When doing so, take terrain condi-
tions into consideration.
Vehicle speed can also be reduced using the vehicle speed regulator. When negotiating extremely
steep slopes, align the snow groomer in the direction of the slope in order to maintain vehicle stability.
