WARNING
Shoes
If you lose a track (break a
and
Bush-
track shoe or vehicle
throws a track), extreme
ings
caution must be exer-
cised in maintaining con-
trol. Immediately release
accelerator and let the ve-
hicle coast to a stop. Do
not apply braking action,
i.e. brake pedal, laterals,
pivot or any type of steer-
ing controls. This causes
the vehicle to pull to the
active or good track and
could result in a rollover.
If it is absolutely neces-
sary, apply braking action
only and we stress only, if
the vehicle is approach-
ing a ravine, a cliff, or if
you perceive the outcome
to be catastrophic, prob-
ably resulting in fatalities.
When rollover is immi-
nent, all crew members
should immediately with-
draw inside the vehicle,
tighten seat belts and
hold onto a secure fix-
ture, until the vehicle
comes to a complete
stop.
