Safety Precautions
• If the unit should begin to tip or become unstable, DO NOT try to stabilize the unit with your
legs or arms.
• If the unit is involved in an accident or inadvertently damaged during operation, stop and
perform a thorough inspection. Make sure the unit is in safe operating condition prior to
resuming work.
• Be alert to any unusual reaction to any of the controls. If anything unusual is noticed, shut the
machine down and thoroughly inspect it to determine the cause of the problem. Do not
operate the machine until all required repairs have been made.
• If the unit must be left unattended, shut the machine down and make sure that it can not be
started by an unauthorized individual.
• Operating on steep slopes can be dangerous and there is a greater risk of the machine tipping
over or becoming unstable. The list of rules below must be understood and followed for
maximum safety:
– Avoid excessively steep slopes or unstable surfaces. If travel on a slope is necessary, keep
the load low and proceed with extreme caution.
– DO NOT travel ACROSS excessively steep slopes under any circumstances.
– Travel straight up and down slopes with the heavy end of the machine pointing up the
incline. When the machine has no load, the operator's platform end of the machine is
considered the heavy end.
– Turning on slopes is not a recommended practice, however if you must turn on slopes;
reduce travel speed to as slow as possible, and exercise extreme caution. Avoid sharp turns
or sudden movements.
– Wet or slick ground conditions should be avoided as reduced traction could cause the
machine to slide down the slope.
– Never park the unit on a slope.
