EXCAVATING ON SLOPES

When digging on slopes always face the backhoe upgrade whenever

possible. It may be necessary to cut a level surface in the hill for the back-

hoe to sit in when operating on slopes. This will allow the backhoe to sit

level for digging the main excavation. Pile the spoil from the surface down-

hill. When digging the main excavation, pile the spoil uphill.
