With a gradient?

[Torsten]

Hi, can you please tell me what 'with a gradient' in the following text means?

Apart from doing a lot of work at cheap rates, reducing many two person jobs to single person tasks, it significantly reduces operating risks where there is a risk to the person operating a traditional drive-on dumper: demolition sites, sites where there is a threat of falling debris, with a gradient, confined spaces, narrow access, busy highways, contaminated land, unstable ground, ad infinitum.

Many thanks,
Torsten

"gradient" means slope, so it's talking about sloping sites, e.g. on a hill.

Hi Torsten,
As I got it, that was about some machine doing man's jobs at the potentially hazardous sites (slopes with enough rate of inclination - gradient - are among those.)
