Driving Techniques
CROSSING A RIDGE
CROSSING A DITCH
H3858
Cross ditches at an angle so that three wheels
H3857
always maintain contact with the ground. If a
ditch is approached head on, both front wheels
will drop into the ditch together, possibly
resulting in the chassis and front bumper being
trapped on opposite sides of the ditch. If the
severity of terrain makes this inevitable,
selecting ‘Off-road’ height with the EAS to
increase clearance between the ground and the
bottom of the vehicle may help.
Approach at right angles so that both front
wheels cross the ridge together - an angled
approach could cause stability to be lost
through diagonally opposite wheels lifting from
the ground at the same time.
