GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT
Do not exceed 195,656 lbs/80,80495 GVW.
OPERATOR’S SEAT
When you operate the machine in very rough ground
conditions or at travel speeds not suitable for the
ground conditions, this may result in excessive seat
vertical travel with impact of the suspension against
the travel stops, which may cause injury. Do not
operate the machine on ground conditions and at
travel speeds that could result in the seat suspension
travel stops being contacted. In order to minimize
impact loading on the operator, properly adjust the
seat controls based upon your weight and based
upon your height. Refer to the 631G Operation and
Maintenance Manual, "Seat" for more information.
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
Do not allow the engine to overspeed when you go
downhill. Do not disengage the transmission while
you are travelling downhill. If equipped, use the
retarder control to reduce engine overspeed when
you are going downhill. If your machine is not
equipped with a retarder control, use the service
brake control to reduce engine overspeed when you
are going downhill. Never coast the machine.
