Use and operate the machine in such a way that its stability is guaranteed. Stability is particularly at risk at the edges of pits, dumps and embankments, at garage edges and on ledges. Therefore, keep your distance from embankment edges and edges so that there is no risk of falling or tipping over. Do not drive the machine over sloping terrain with a gradient in the direction of travel and across that is outside the permissible range for the machine.
