OPERATION
OPERATING WITH FLOAT CONTROL
During hard surface operation, keep bucket level
and put lift control in float position to permit bucket
to float on working surface. If hydraulic down
pressure is exerted on bucket, it will wear faster
than normal.
Float will also prevent mixing of surface material
with stockpile material. Float position will reduce the
chance of surface gouging when removing snow or
other material.
LOADING FROM A BANK
Choose a forward gear that provides sufficient
ground speed for loading.
Exercise caution when undercutting high banks.
Dirt slides can be dangerous. Load from as low as
possible for maximum efficiency. Loader lift and
breakaway capacity diminish as loading height is
increased.
