NEVER! stand under, or get onto the roller while it is being lifted or moved.
NEVER! operate the roller on side slopes (Figure 5). The possibility exist that the roller could tip over (roll over), thus causing bodily harm even death and serious damage to the equipment.
CAUTION :
ONLY! use steel ropes or chains that are capable of lifting at least 1,940 lbs. (880 kg ).

Figure 5. Recommended Slope
OPERATING ON SLOPES
Special care must be taken when operating the roller on hills or slopes. There exist the possibility of serious injury to the operator and severe damage to the roller in the event of a roll over. ALWAYS operate the roller up and down hills rater than from side to side. For safe operation hillside slopes should not exceed 12 degree (21 % grade). See Figure 4 below.
In the event the roller does tip over, extreme care must be taken to prevent damage to the engine. When the roller has been tipped over, oil from the engine crankcase can flow into the combustion chamber, which can severely damage the engine the next time it is started.
IMMEDIATELY after a unit has tipped over upright the unit as soon as possible to prevent oil from leaking into the combustion chamber.
CAUTION :
To prevent damage to the engine after a rollover, the unit must NOT be started. NEVER start a unit after a rollover.CONTACT your nearest authorized Multiquip dealer for instructions or servicing.
