DANGER
Crushing hazard!
Do not enter or exit the operator's compartment while the loader arms are raised or unsupported. Rest
the loader arms on the ground or verify that loader arm is being supported by the loader arm strut or
loader arm lock pin before entering or exiting the operator's compartment.
Failure to comply will result in death or serious injury.
NOTE: The override control knob is for service and emergency situations only and should not be used in day-to-day
operations.
In the event of the loss of engine power, the override con-
trol knob will allow the operator to raise or lower the loader
arm. See the decal on the override control knob (1) (red
control knob on the right-hand side of the operator's seat).
Before attempting to raise or lower the loader arm/attach-
ment on a machine that has lost engine power, alert per-
sonnel in the area of your intention. Do not leave the
seat, or unfasten the seat belt or raise the restraint bar
(if equipped).

1. Confirm that personnel and obstacles are clear.
2. Pull the override control knob UP. The loader arm/at-
tachment will start to lower.
3. To stop the loader arm/attachment from lowering,
press the control knob DOWN at any time.
4. Once the loader arm/attachment is safely supported
on the ground or on the loader arm lock support, make
sure that the override control knob is completely in the
DOWN position.
To raise the loader arm/attachment:
1. Have an assistant attach a secondary external lifting
device to the front of the loader arm.
