Caution Of Travel On A Steep Slope - IHI IC75-2 Operation Manual

CAUTION OF TRAVEL ON A STEEP SLOPE

Do not travel on slopes over 20° in order to
•
avoid turnover.
• On steep slopes over 9°, travel the machine at
low travel speed and middle or lower engine
speed.
Never change the travel direction on steep
•
slopes or cross such slopes. Such operation
may cause turnover or slip. Move down to a flat
ground once and make a detour. Be sure to
drive safely.
Overruns tend to occur when traveling downhill
•
in the manual mode.
If an overrun occurs, perform overrun
avoidance operation immediately.
Cautions
Travel in the proper postures shown below.
• Drive the machine with the cabin upper side of a slope
when the vessel is empty. This posture ensures stable
driving, since the center of gravity is located on the
cabin side.
• Drive the machine with the vessel upper side of a slope
when the vessel is full. This posture ensures stable
driving, since the center of gravity is located on the
vessel side.
• When driving over an obstacle, reduce the speed and
drive safely with care not to turn over.
• Do not accelerate or decelerate the speed or stop
suddenly.
