WARNING:
 Always turn the auto-idle switch OFF when loading
or unloading the machine. In auto-idle mode, speed
may automatically increase.
 Always select slow speed mode with the travel mode
switch.
 Never steer while driving up or down a ramp, it is
extremely dangerous and may cause the machine to
turnover. NEVER attempt to change direction when
positioned on the ramp. If repositioning is necessary,
first move back to the ground or flatbed, change the
direction of travel, and begin to drive again.
 At the point where the ramp meets the level surface
there is a sudden change of angle. Take care when
traveling over this point, as balance may be lost.
 Extreme care must be taken when swinging the
upper structure when the machine is on the trailer
flatbed. If the front attachment is fitted, swing slowly
with the arm fully rolled-in underneath the boom,
being careful not to lose the balance of the machine.

aligns with the centerline of the trailer flatbed.
