Operation
Installation of clam bucket, see "Installation and removal of quick
change attachment equipment with auxiliary hydraulics".
M300098A
The locking cylinder is operated with the lever (2).
Note:
1
When levelling in reverse, the front bucket flap must only be
partly opened, so that any obstructions, such as rocks or tree
2 trunks do not damage or distort the front flap. The travel
speed must be matched to the condition of the road.
Maintenance
Material which is trapped between locking cylinder and rear clam
must be immediately removed, as otherwise the piston rod of the
cylinder may be damaged or bent.
M200054A
Check hydraulic lines at regular intervals for leaks and visible
external damage, replace if necessary.
Grease the bearings for the clam bucket and the locking cylinders
every 50 operating hours. For quality of grease refer to the lubri-
cant table.
Always relieve the pressure in the hydraulic system before starting
maintenance or repair work.
Work in hydraulic systems must only be performed by author-
ized personnel.
Attachments - optional equipment
