Traveling Position of the Boom and Bucket

What happens here

For safe traveling across a site, position the excavator's boom and bucket to be tucked down and close to the machine. This configuration lowers the center of gravity, significantly improving stability while moving. Additionally, keeping the bucket low helps to minimize the machine's overall height, reducing the risk of hitting overhead obstacles. An operator should adjust the boom to be compact, with the bucket slightly off the ground, ensuring maximum control and visibility.

Goal: Position the excavator's boom and bucket correctly for safe travel across the site
