• Always use the correct implement (grab forks, buckets,
etc) for the specific task to ensure that the load is se-
curely kept in place.
• It is recommended to install a front loader provided with
a parallel guide system and to use it always; this system
keeps the load in the bucket horizontal, irrespective of
the lift height of the arms.
Installation and working with front loader on
tractors without cab
ATTENTION: It is not recommended to install a front -
end loader on a tractor without cab, which cannot offer a
minimum protection against falling objects.
Strictly observe the following precautionary warnings:
• Do not lift the front - end loader to a height from which
objects may fall or roll on the driver.
• Always use the correct implement (grab forks, buckets,
etc) for the specific task to ensure that the load is se-
curely kept in place.
• It is recommended to install a front loader provided with
a parallel guide system and to use it always; this system
keeps the load in the bucket horizontal, irrespective of
the lift height of the arms.
• If available install a FOPS structure or ask the supplier
of the loader to install either a FOPS certified structure
on main ROPS structure or at least a minimal structure
offering partial protection from falling objects (e.g. a
"Suncanopy").
