12.11 Driving
m Warning!
Before starting the engine, make sure that there
are no other persons in the vicinity of the exca-
vator. Check the direction of the crawlers before
working with the excavator. (Idle roller and level-
ling blade pointing to the front of the excavator.)
Avoid driving across a slope or working side-
ways on it.
1. Set the engine speed from idling to medium
speed.
2. Raise the levelling blade and hold the bucket 20 to
40 cm from the ground.
20 - 40 cm
12.11.1 Drive lever (right, left)
m Warning!
If the swivelling frame has been rotated by 180°,
i.e. it is at the rear from the operator's point of
view, the direction of travel is opposite to the di-
rection of travel of the levers. (If the drive lever
is moved forwards, the excavator moves back-
wards as seen by the operator.)
If the drive lever is pushed forwards, the excavator
moves forwards and vice versa. The front of the ex-
cavator is the side with the levelling blade.
Important!
If the crawlers become clogged with sand or
stones when working on soft ground, lift a crawl-
er using the boom, arm and bucket and allow the
crawler to turn to shake off sand and stones.
Important!
If the excavator gets stuck in the mud while trav-
elling on muddy ground and cannot move, it
should be lifted to a safe area using the sling as
shown in the illustration below.
