Stability Data
The following tables list the maximum slope recommended for the traction unit in the positions listed in the tables. Slopes
over the listed degree may cause the traction unit to become unstable. The data in the tables assume that the loader arms
are fully lowered; raised arms may affect the stability.
In each attachment manual is a set of three stability ratings, one for each hill position. To determine the maximum slope
you can traverse with the attachment installed, find the degree of slope that corresponds to the stability ratings of the
attachment. Example: If the attachment installed on a TX 420 traction unit has a Front Uphill rating of B, a Rear Uphill
rating of D, and a Side Uphill rating of C, then you could drive forward up a 20° slope, rearward up a 12° slope, or
sideways on a 14° slope, as listed in the following table for the TX 420 traction unit.
