WARNING: Operate the machine with the side
frames fully extended (1280 mm) or retracted (980
mm). If the machine is operated with the side frames
extended insufficiently, the extended side frames are
not securely held, causing the upper structure to keep
moving and constituting a safety hazard. Operate
the machine with the side frames fully retracted only
when traveling through a flat narrow work site. Except
for this condition, whenever traveling the machine,
performing excavation, or operating the blade, be sure
to fully extend the side frames. Failure to do so may
cause the machine to turn over.
IMPORTANT: Before extending or retracting the side
frames, park the machine on a level surface with no
obstructions and remove packed mud or gravel from
the side frame extend / retract mechanism if any.
Operating the side frame extend / retract lever
1. Pull up side frame extend /retract lever (1) to extend the
side frame.
2. Push down side frame extend /retract lever (1) to retract
