MACHINE OPERATIONS AND CONTROLS
LEVELING WORK
Leveling work is the operation to finish the ground when the current ground is similar to the design surface.
Select "Cutting & Carry".
1.
Start the blade automatic control, and drive the machine.
The blade automatically levels the ground.
2.
Start the place higher than the design surface, and carry the cut soil to the lower place to fill there.
(T) Design surface
If some place higher than the design surface is left at 1 time dozing, travel on that place several times so
that such place can be built as designed.
Depending on the type of soil, if the travel speed is high, the leveled surface may be uneven. Decrease the
travel speed.
When checking the height of design surface by using blade, place the joystick (steering, directional and gear
shift lever) in FORWARD position with decelerator/brake pedal and decelerator pedal depressed, and perform
LOWER trigger operation.
For LOWER trigger operation method, see "METHOD FOR ACTIVATING AUTOMATIC BLADE CONTROL".
Since the blade will automatically go down to the height of design surface, you can grasp the relationship be-
tween the machine and design surface. However, if the height of design surface is lower than the ground where
the track contacts, the blade does not go down below the ground.
Even for the design surface which is not horizon, the blade automatic control can be used.
When turning the machine on the slope at leveling work, turn with large turning radius or change the direction of
machine and push the soil slantwise in straight line in order to make the finishing surface smooth.
