The danger of tipping is always present when oper-
ating on a grade, possibly resulting in serious injury
or death.
To avoid tipping:
Be extra careful before operating on a grade.
•
Prepare machine operating area flat.
•
Keep the bucket low to the ground and close to
the machine.
•
Reduce operating speeds to avoid tipping or slip-
ping.
•
Avoid changing direction when traveling on
grades.
•
NEVER attempt to travel across a grade steeper
than 15 degrees if crossing the grade is un-
avoidable.
•
Reduce swing speed as necessary when swing-
ing loads.
Be careful when working on frozen ground.
•
Temperature increases will cause the ground to
become soft and make ground travel unstable.
NEVER UNDERCUT A HIGH BANK
The edges could collapse or a land slide could occur
causing serious injury or death.
