LOADING,
TRANSPORTING
AND PILING
When transporting
material, raise the boom arms to give the
same ground clearance as provided
by the loader. A loaded
bucket must never be transported in the fully raised position.
Keep the travel speed reasonable for safe operation.
Upon
reaching the truck, raise the bucket high enough to clear the
truck
body.
Reduce forward
speed and dump load slowly
(1IIust. 5). This will reduce the shock of weight transfer to the
rear axle when the bucket is emptied. Shake bucket only to
loosen dirt from within.

Illust.5
Dumping Into Truck.
Before dumping a large rock(s) into a truck (1IIust. 6), put
enough loose rock or dirt into the truck first to act as
cushioning material. Place large rocks into center of truck
from as Iowa height as possible.
