OPERATION
11. PRECAUTIONS WHEN OPERATING RADIO CON-
TROL
The person operating the radio control cannot see the other side of the machine, so always check that opera-
tion is safe.
To carry out operations by remote control efficiently, check beforehand that you are standing in a position
where it is easy to see the overall operation (in particular the tip of the work equipment).
When carrying out operations facing the base machine, the direction of steering is the opposite, so check the
direction carefully.
The feeling when operating the machine with remote control is different from the feeling when operating from
the operator's seat. It is particularly difficult to judge the travel speed accurately. In particular, when traveling
at high speed, be extremely careful about the movement of the machine and the road surface in front of the
machine.
When steering with the engine running at high speed, operate the control levers slowly and avoid sharp turns.
Operation is carried out from a distance, so there are places which are difficult to see, and this creates a dan-
gerous situation.
When operating the travel and the work equipment simultaneously, various levers are operated at the same
time, so operate extremely carefully.
In addition to the above, when carrying out radio control operation, follow the same precautions as when oper-
ating from the operator's seat (see the Operation and Maintenance Manual for the standard machine).
