OPERATION
LOADING OPERATIONS
Select the method of operation which will give the minimum amount of turning and travel in order to provide the most
efficient method for the jobsite.
Always keep the jobsite flat, and do not operate the steering wheel suddenly or apply the brakes suddenly when the lift arm is
raised with a loaded bucket. This is dangerous.
Never thrust the bucket in when traveling at high speed (when loading soil or crushed rock). This is dangerous.
When the machine is traveling or the work equipment is raised, the moment that the E.C.S.S. switch is turned ON, the work
equipment will move.
If operations are carried out with the E.C.S.S. switch left at the ON position, the moment that the travel damper is actuated, the
work equipment will move.
NOTICE
If the tires slip, the tire life will be reduced, so do not allow the tires to slip during operation.
Avoid excessive bucket shaking.
CROSS DRIVE LOADING
Always set the wheel loader facing at a right angle to the stockpile.
After digging in and scooping up the load, drive the machine
straight back in reverse, then bring the dump truck in between the
stock pile and the wheel loader.
This method requires the least time for loading, and is extremely
effective in reducing the cycle time.
