Driving on Public Roads
 CAUTION:
Handlers are difficult to be seen, especially at night. Avoid personal injury or death resulting from collision with a vehicle.
Whenever driving on public roads, use flashing warning lights and turn signals according to local regulation. To increase visibility, use the lights and devices provided with your machine. For some equipment, install extra flashing warning lights.
NEVER exceed 8 km/h (5 mph) when carrying a load.
-
Check that the lights are working properly before driving on public roads.
-
Select two wheel steering. Refer to "Steering Modes" in "Operating the Machine" Section.
-
It is advisable to lock out all hydraulic boom functions using switch (A). Refer to "Boom Safety Devices" in "Operating the Boom" Section.
-
Fully retract boom and place it at the lowest position that will give adequate ground clearance.
-
Tilt front attachment as far back as possible.
-
Do not carry loads that restrict visibility.
-
Balance loads so weight is evenly distributed and load is stable.
-
Drive slowly if carrying materials. Rough conditions may cause material to spill.

Avoid carrying loads wider than the handler.
