width.
- Lower the dozer, boom, arm and attachments to the ground.
- Turn off the engine and secure it against restarting by removing the ignition key.
- Do not work under the machine.
- Do not remain within the swinging range of the boom.
- Do not enter the manoeuvring area.
For models with extendable track width, adjust the desired track
width prior to operation. To do this:
Move the selector lever for the dozer/extendable track width (1)

fully to the right (figure/ ).
To change the track width, both track width cylinders
need to be either fully extended (standard track width)
STOP
or retracted (narrow track width).
Using the dozer control lever (1), adjust the desired track width.

To decrease the track width from 990 to 750 mm, move the

dozer control lever forward (figure/ ).
To increase the track width from 750 to 990 mm, move the doz-

er control lever backward (figure/ ).
After adjusting the track width, immediately move the selec-tor

lever for the dozer/extendable track width fully to the left (figure
above, position ).
Risk of unexpected movement of the dozer!
If the selector lever is positioned incorrectly, this may lead to an unexpected adjustment of the dozer.
- Make sure that the dozer/extendable track width selector lever (1) is set all the way to the left.
The machine may not be operated with the narrow track width (750 mm) because this increases the
STOP
tipping risk. Except when driving on narrow flat areas, always use the standard track width (990 mm).
Set blade width to narrow track width:
Pull out locking bolt (1).

Fold away dozer enlargement (2) behind dozer.

Reinsert locking bolt (1).

Carry out these tasks on both sides of the dozer.
