4.4 TRAVELING (DRIVING)
See Figure 4-4., Grade and Side Slopes
NOTE: Refer to the Operating Specifications table for Gradeabil-
ity and Sideslope ratings.
All ratings for Gradeability and Sideslope are based upon
the machine’s boom being in the stowed position, fully
lowered, and retracted.
TO AVOID LOSS OF TRAVEL CONTROL OR “TIP OVER”, DO NOT DRIVE
MACHINE ON GRADES EXCEEDING THOSE SPECIFIED ON THE SERIAL
NUMBER PLATE.
DO NOT DRIVE ON SIDESLOPES WHICH EXCEED 5 DEGREES.
USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN DRIVING IN REVERSE AND AT ALL
TIMES WHEN THE PLATFORM IS ELEVATED.
MATCH THE BLACK AND WHITE DIRECTION ARROWS ON BOTH PLAT-
FORM CONTROL PANEL AND THE CHASSIS TO DETERMINE THE DIREC-
TION THE MACHINE WILL TRAVEL.
Traveling is limited by two factors:
1. Gradeability, which is the percent of grade of the incline
the machine can climb.
2. Sideslope, which is the angle of the slope the machine
can be driven across.
