OPERATION

STEERING THE MACHINE

If the machine is turned at high speed or on a steep slope, there is danger
that it will turn over, so do not operate the steering in such conditions.
Do not continue to turn the steering wheel when it has been turned fully
to the left or right. Continuing to turn the steering wheel will make the
oil temperature in the circuit rise and cause overheating.
When the steering nears the end of the turn on the left or right, turn the
steering wheel more slowly. Turning the steering wheel suddenly to the
end of the turn will cause damage to the machine.
To turn the machine when traveling, turn steering wheel (1) in the direction of the turn.
When traveling around a curve, release the accelerator pedal before entering the curve, shift down to a lower speed
range, then depress the accelerator pedal to travel around the curve. Never coast around the curves at high speed.
REMARK
The angle of the steering wheel may change (the position of the spoke may change slightly) when the machine
is traveling, but this is not a failure.
If force is applied to the steering wheel when the tires have been turned fully to the left or right, the steering wheel
will turn a little at a time, but this is not a failure.
