To determine the slope grade
Measure the slope with a digital inclinometer OR use the following procedure.
You will need:
• Carpenter's level
• Straight piece of wood, at least 3.3 ft / 1 m long
• Tape measure
Lay the piece of wood on the slope.
At the downhill end, lay the level on the top edge of the piece of wood and lift the end until the piece
of wood is level.
While holding the piece of wood level, measure the distance from the bottom of the piece of wood to
the ground.
Divide the tape measure distance (rise) by the length of the piece of wood (run) and multiply
by 100.
Example:
• Run = 12 ft / 3.6 m
• Rise = 12 in / 0.3 m
• 12 in ÷ 12 ft = 0.083 × 100 = 8.3%
• 0.3 m ÷ 3.6 m = 0.083 × 100 = 8.3%
If the slope exceeds the maximum slope or side slope rating, the machine must be winched or
transported up or down the slope. See Transport and Lifting section.
Operation from Ground with Controller
Maintain safe distances between operator, machine and fixed objects.
Be aware of the direction the machine will travel when using the controller.
Battery Level Indicator
Use the LED diagnostic readout to determine the battery level.

Use extreme caution when operating the machine with the controller
from the ground.
