Abstract:
A method for tipping a load by a working machine is provided. The working machine includes a load carrier and at least one lift cylinder adapted to raise the load carrier for tipping the load. The method includes obtaining a measure of the inclination angle of the working machine, where the inclination of the working machine is such that the rear end of the working machine is higher than the front end thereof, allowing a first maximal tipping pressure to the lift cylinder for raising the load carrier when the inclination angle is smaller than a predefined inclination angle, and allowing a second maximal tipping pressure to the lift cylinder for raising the load carrier when the inclination angle is greater than the predefined inclination angle, and where the second maximal tipping pressure exceeds the first maximal tipping pressure. A tipping device, a working machine comprising such a tipping device, a computer program and a computer program product are also provided.
