Stability Ratings
To determine the degree of slope you can traverse with the
bucket installed on a traction unit, find the stability rating for
the hill position that you want to travel in the appropriate
table below, then find the degree of slope for the same rating
and hill position in the Stability Data section of the Operator's
Manual for the traction unit.
WARNING
Exceeding the maximum recommended slope
can cause the traction unit to tip, crushing you or
bystanders.
Do not drive the traction unit on a slope steeper
than the maximum recommended slope, as
determined in the following tables and the traction
unit Operator's Manual .
