Familiarization
4. Familiarization
Your LXT95 or LXT115 log loader trailer is designed for an
operator to load and transport logs. Use the boom and log
grapple to lift logs and then place them on the trailer. Power to
operate the machine is provided by a gas engine and hydraulic
pump.

New Operator
WARNING!
Make sure that all operators understand how
to place the machine in a safe condition before
performing any service, maintenance, or storage
preparation. For instructions, see Safe Condition
on page 9.
It is the responsibility of the owner and the operator to read
this manual, and to train all other operators before they work
with the machine. Follow all safety instructions.
An operator that does not have the correct training is not
qualified to use the machine. They can endanger themselves
and others or damage property.
4.2
Training
Each operator must be trained in the correct operating
procedures before using the machine. The Sign-Off Form on
page 10 can be used to keep a training record.
1. Review control locations, functions, and movement
directions.
2. Move the machine to a large open area and let the new
operator become familiar with the control functions and
machine responses.
3. When the new operator is familiar and comfortable with the
machine, they can proceed with the work.

Operator Orientation
IMPORTANT! Unless otherwise specified, the left hand
(LH), right hand (RH), forward, and backward directions
described in this manual are referenced from the operator
control panel position when facing the direction of forward
machine travel.
