overrevving/over-revving equipment Explanation: The word "over-revving" sounds slightly informal to me, but I can't think of any other word that fits. In the following dictionary entry, there is no hyphen, but "overrevving" looks a bit jumbled to my eye, so I'd tend to go with "over-revving" instead. overrev Verb (third-person singular simple present overrevs, present participle overrevving, simple past and past participle overrevved) To rev (an engine or vehicle) too much. http://www.yourdictionary.com/overrev overrevving Verb Present participle of overrev. http://www.yourdictionary.com/overrevving |

Reference: Findings Reference information: DESCRIPTION SlopeAlert is a reliable, low cost solution for determining inrange and out of range tilt conditions. Originally designed for off-road, in-motion vehicles and equipment that operate in high vibration/shock, rough terrain environments, it is well suited for any application where tilt angle needs to be limited. Two of the most common applications for this warning device: 1) to help prevent vehicle or equipment rollover on steep slopes; and 2) to aid track vehicles that need protection for over rotation while in motion, especially in rough terrain. Connected to a lamp, horn, or solenoid relay, this compact single or dual axis unit can indicate both safe and unsafe conditions as well as provide a control signal to help prevent equipment over rotation.
