What is the consequence of losing traction while operating a TLB?

Losing traction while operating a TLB (tractor-loader-backhoe) significantly impacts productivity and control. When traction is compromised, the machine struggles to maintain grip on the ground, which can lead to slippage or sliding. This diminished grip makes it harder for the operator to maneuver effectively, affecting the machine's ability to perform tasks like digging, lifting, or transporting materials. As a result, operational efficiency is reduced because tasks may take longer to complete or may not be done as accurately. Moreover, poor traction can lead to the operator having less control over the machine, increasing the risk of accidents or unintended movements. Thus, ensuring good traction is essential for maintaining productivity and control during operations.
