Moving The Machine Forwards When Working - Case 570T Operator's Manual

Moving the machine forwards when working

1. It is possible to use the backhoe attachment to move
the machine forward at the same time as the excava-
tion.
2. Make sure that the front wheels are straight.
3. Set the engine speed to 1000 RPM.
4. Release the parking brake.
5. Raise the boom and retract the dipper, then move
the boom so as to place the backhoe bucket teeth
on stable ground.
6. Raise the stabilizers and the loader bucket about
20 cm (7.87 in) from the ground.
7. Use the boom and dipper to move the machine.
8. After moving the machine, lower the stabilizers and
place the loader bucket on the ground, then level the
machine.
9. Engage the parking brake.
NOTICE: This procedure can only be used on level
ground. Never use it on sloping ground. On sloping
ground it is mandatory to turn the operator's seat to the
loader attachment position to move the machine by the
normal procedure.
The machine can be moved sideways in the same fash-
ion, except that the bucket must be flat to support the
weight of the machine. Use the swing control to move
the machine sideways to the required position.
