AVOID TIPPING
•
The danger of tipping is always present when operating
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 slipping.
• Avoid changing direction when traveling on grades.
• NEVER attempt to travel across a grade steeper than
15 degrees if crossing the grade is unavoidable.
• Reduce swing speed as necessary when swinging
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.
