Abstract

A machine operating on a work surface includes a boom member, a feed assembly, a work device, a movable carrier including a lower structure and an upper structure movably coupled with the lower structure, and an actuator assembly adapted to move the upper structure relative to the lower structure. The machine also includes a sensor module configured to generate a first signal indicative of a first pitch angle. The machine further includes a control module configured to receive the first signal indicative of the first pitch angle. The control module is also configured to generate a second signal for controlling a movement of the actuator assembly based on the first signal. The control module is further configured to transmit the second signal to the actuator assembly in order to move the upper structure by a second pitch angle.
