MACHINE OPERATIONS AND CONTROLS
REMARK
Travel down fills with the sprocket (1) side down.
If the machine travels down with the sprocket (1) side up, the
track tends to become loose, and that can cause skipping
pitches.
2. When traveling up a steep hill of more than 15º, set the
work equipment to the posture shown in the diagram on
the right.
TRAVELING DOWNHILL
To brake the machine during downhill runs, put the travel lever in the neutral position. This will cause the brake to
be automatically applied.
ENGINE STOPPED ON SLOPE
If the engine stops when traveling uphill, move the all levers to the neutral position, then start the engine again.
PRECAUTIONS ON SLOPES
Do not open or close the sliding door when traveling or operating on slopes. The operating force may change
suddenly.
Always set the sliding door to the LOCK position.
