PRECAUTIONS FOR OPERATING WITH THE
OFFSET FUNCTION
CAUTION: In case this machine is equipped with
an unspecified attachment such as an oversized
bucket or hydraulic breaker, the attachment may
come in contact with the cab if the machine is
operated with the front attachment offset,
possibly causing injury or death as well as
damaging the machine
CAUTION: Never jack up the machine with the
front in the offset position. This is extremely
dangerous, as the machine is unstable.
IMPORTANT: Do not perform heavy duty work, or dig
gravel with the front in the offset
position.
Do not perform tamping work with a
slope-finishing bucket attached. These
operation will damage the lower and
upper booms.
1. When using unspecified attachments such as
oversized buckets or hydraulic breaker, be sure the
front attachment dimension doesn't exceed the
specified dimension shown rightward.
Use an attachment with the dimension between the
arm top pin center to the tip end of the attachment
1060mm or less.
2. When digging with the front in the offset position, the
bucket will come in contact with the track link if the
arm is crowded.
Even if bucket does not touch the track link, watch for
the bucket digging under the track, as this will cause
instability.
3. Be sure to follow the precautions shown below.
(1) Do not use the 2.12 m arm as it will interfere with
the cab when in the offset position.
(2) Do not use the bucket as a pile driver with the
boom in the offset position.
(3) When digging with the boom in offset position,
be careful not to damage the cylinder stay.
In order to prevent the offset pins from getting
rusty, operate the offset function regularly. Check
offset function operation every time before
starting work.
