Check Before Operating
Stability Data
The following table lists the maximum slope recommended for the traction unit in the positions listed in the
table. Slopes over the listed degree may cause the traction unit to become unstable. The data in the table
assumes that the loader arms are fully lowered and that the factory installed tires are on the traction unit, inflated
to the recommended pressure; raised arms and other tire types or pressure may affect the stability.
Configuration
Traction unit without attachment
Traction unit with counterweight, without attachment
Traction unit with an attachment rated with one of the following
stability ratings for each slope position:*
A
B
C
D
E
* In each attachment manual is a set of three stability ratings, one for each hill position. To determine the
maximum slope you can traverse with the attachment installed, find the degree of slope that corresponds to the
stabilities ratings of the attachment. Unless otherwise specified in the attachment manual, assume that the listed
ratings are for use without the counterweight.
Example: If the attachment installed on the traction unit has a Front Uphill rating of B, a Rear Uphill rating of
D, and a Side Uphill rating of C, then you could drive forward up a 20 slope, rearward up a 10 slope, or
sideways on a 13 slope, as listed in the above table.
