Case 570T Operator's Manual page 107

WARNING
Falling objects!
Dirt slides can be dangerous. Exercise ex-
treme care when undercutting high banks.
Watch for falling rocks and cave-ins.
Failure to comply could result in death or se-
rious injury.
Dump the bucket completely, raise the attachment and
then release the transmission disconnect button.
Keep the bucket position as low as possible, especially
when working on sloping or rough ground.
WARNING
Loss of control hazard!
A full bucket in the raised position may cause
the machine to slide when operating over
rough ground. Keep the bucket as low as
possible during operation for better stability
and visibility. Always operate the machine at
slow speeds over rough ground.
Failure to comply could result in death or se-
rious injury.
Raise the loader high enough to clear any obstruction
prior to dumping the load. Once the load is dumped, drive
back while lowering and leveling the bucket. Use the re-
turn-to-dig feature, if required.
During hard surface operation, place the loader attach-
ment lever in "float" position and keep the bucket level.
This will permit the bucket to "float" on the contour of the
working surface. If hydraulic down pressure is exerted,
the bucket will wear faster than normal. The "float" posi-
tion will prevent the mixing of surface material with stock-
pile material. It will also reduce the chance of surface
gouging when removing snow or other material. When
loading from a bank select the highest forward gear which
will provide the most efficient loading operation without
going into a "stall". Keep the working area free of ruts and
holes occasionally back grading with the bucket using the
low rear edge of the bucket.
For site stripping peeling or scraping, use down pressure
with the loader attachment lever in the lowered position,
and a slight bucket angle to start the cut. Begin the cut at
the notch approximately 50 mm (1.97 in) deep and hold
the depth by feathering the bucket to adjust the cutting lip
up or down as required.
When the machine front tires enter the cut, adjust the lift
arms to maintain the correct depth. Make additional cuts
until the desired depth is reached. Back grade the work-
ing area occasionally with the bucket flat and slight down
pressure to keep the working area smooth and free from
ruts or holes. If the loader attachment lever is moved for
lift cylinder action without controlling the bucket angle, the
bucket may gouge and leave a series of ruts in the sur-
face.
