Claim 7:
8. A method of moving an upper structure of a machine operating on a work surface, wherein the machine includes a lower structure and an actuator assembly adapted to move the upper structure relative to the lower structure, the method comprising:
generating a first signal, by a sensor module mounted on the machine, indicative of a first pitch angle of the machine relative to a non-inclined surface;
receiving, by a control module associated with the machine, the first signal from the sensor module;
generating, by the control module, a second signal for controlling a movement of the actuator assembly based on the first signal; and
transmitting, by the control module, the second signal to the actuator assembly in order to move the upper structure by a second pitch angle, such that a plane defined by an operator cabin of the machine is substantially parallel to the non-inclined surface, wherein the second pitch angle is opposite in direction to the first pitch angle, wherein the upper structure is movably coupled to the lower structure and the upper structure is configured to pitch, roll, and yaw relative to the lower structure.
