DRIVE MACHINE SAFELY

• Before driving the machine, always confirm that the travel
levers/pedals direction corresponds to the direction you
wish to drive.
• Be sure to detour around any obstructions.
• Avoid traveling over obstructions. Soil, fragments of rocks,
and/or metal pieces may scatter around the machine. Do
not allow personnel to stay around the machine while
traveling.
• Driving on a slope may cause the machine to slip or over-
turn, possibly resulting in serious injury or death.
• Never attempt to ascend or descend 35 degrees or steep-
er slopes.
• Be sure to fasten the seat belt.
• When driving up or down a slope, keep the bucket fac-
ing the direction of travel, approximately 0.5 to 1.0 m (A)
above the ground.
• If the machine starts to skid or becomes unstable, imme-
diately lower the bucket to the ground and stop.
