Tipping-over may occur if the excavator is
on uneven ground or on a slope. To avoid such accidents, the following instructions
should be taken when the excavator is operated on uneven ground or on a slope. Firstly,
keep the excavator engine running at a low speed. Secondly, choose the low-speed
travel mode. Thirdly, operate slowly and observe the motion of the excavator. Finally,
never attempt to travel on a slope with the bucket loaded or with a load
lifted.
In detail, we should never attempt to
travel up/down a slope with a grade greater than 30° and never attempt to cross
a slope with a grade greater than 15°. The seat belt needs to keep fastened. The
bucket should be pointed towards the traveling direction and 20~30cm off the
ground, and be released immediately once the excavators slips or lose balance.
The direction change is forbidden on a slope, or the machine may slip and tip
over. We should avoid crossing a slope as possible as condition allows, because
slipping or overturn may result.
We should also remember that the upper
structure of the excavator could never be swung on a slope or to the downhill direction;
otherwise, the excavator may tip over. If such operation is necessary, swing
the upper structure and the boom with great care. In the event that the engine
stalls on a slope, lower the bucket to the ground immediately and neutralize
all control levers and restart the engine. Sany Global.
Before traveling up a steep slope, allow
the Sany excavator to warm up sufficiently so that the machine can perform well. When
traveling uphill, keep the track in the straight forward direction. When
traveling downhill, keep the bucket in the traveling direction and 20~30cm off
the ground.
