C 4.74 Hydraulic oil, brake fluid During operation, these fluids are pressurized and pose a health hazard. Do not spill these fluids. Remove any spilled fluids immediately with oil binding agent and discard them. Dis- card drained fluids as specified. Observe appli- cable laws and regulations.
Page 16
Operating instructions Particularly the particles contained in the exhaust gas can cause cancer. For this rea- son the engine should not be operated in en- closed spaces. Heat The exhaust gases are very hot and can ig- nite inflammable material. The exhaust gas pipe should therefore be kept away from ig- nitable materials.

Page 56
Taking into operation Start the engine Set the forward/reverse selector switch (1) to the neutral position (centre). Fully depress the inching pedal (2). NOTE The engine can only be started if the pedal is fully depressed (starting safety switch). Set the hand throttle button (4) to idle (push in fully). Insert the ignition key and turn the preheat/starter switch (3) to position 1.
Page 57
C 4.74 Turn the ignition key to position 2. The engine is being preheated. The preheating indica- tor (5) comes on. NOTE When starting at low temperatures, hold the ignition key longer (approx. 1 minute) in posi- tion 2. When the preheating indicator extinguishes, turn the ignition key to position 3 to start the engine.
Page 58
Taking into operation Starting the engine with automatic preheating Starting procedure Turn the ignition key to position 1. The engine will be preheated.

C 4.74 Selecting on-road travel (transport speed) The vehicle is stationary. Set the program switch (2) to range 1 or 2. NOTE The driving range can also be switched while driving at reduced speed. Release the parking brake. Depress the accelerator pedal for the desired speed. The vehicle starts and can be driven up to the maxi- mum speed of the chosen range.
Page 64
Operation The vehicle is stationary. Set the fine control knob (1) to 0. Set the program switch (2) to range 3 or 4. Adjust the PTO rpm with the hand throttle (3). NOTE The engine speed must reach at least 1500 rpm as the control is only effective beginning at this speed.
Page 65
C 4.74 Adjusting the fine control knob NOTE You can adjust the fine control knob (1) at any time while driving for fine and infinitely variable control of the driving speed. In position 0 the vehicle is stationary. When turned further clockwise, the vehicle starts driving and at the maximum scale position 11, the maximum speed of the driving range is achieved.
Page 66
Operation Driving with SDS (Special Drive System)* For setting programs 1-3 with the program switch (2) see the operation section on pages 61 and 62. Driving program 4 (SDS) Set the program switch (2) to driving range 4. NOTE At this level the fine control knob (1) is not working.
Page 67
C 4.74 Operating the inching pedal 7 Inching pedal 8 Accelerator pedal This function is active for all driving programs. NOTE The inching pedal allows driving speed to be reduced temporarily. ATTENTION If the inching pedal is floored, for example, for an EMERGENCY STOP, the vehicle will decelerate quickly.
Page 68
Operation Engaging the differential lock NOTE With the differential lock you can improve trac- tion on soft, slippery ground. The engine speed should be over 1000 rpm during its use. You can engage the differential lock only briefly by toggling the switch momentarily. ATTENTION The differential lock may only be used when driving straight ahead.
C 4.74 Steering The vehicle has a hydraulically-operated articulated steer- ing. The wheels also stay in track in curves so that imple- ments are guided without any lateral offset. Steering Turn the steering wheel (1) in the desired direction. The possible turning radii depend on the tires and track widths of your vehicle.
Page 70
Operation Brakes The service brake is a drum brake mounted in the front axle and it is actuated hydraulically. The parking brake is applied with the parking brake switch. Applying the service brake Depress the brake pedal (1). Applying the parking brake ATTENTION The parking brake is not intended to be used for braking while driving.
Page 71
C 4.74 Releasing the parking brake Turn off the parking brake switch (2). The parking brake is released and the indicator light in the switch and the parking brake warning light (3) go out. If the parking brake warning light (3) in the multifunc- tional display comes on with the parking brake re- leased, there is too little pressure for releasing the parking brake in the pressure accumulator.
Page 72
Operation Driving on slopes DANGER Driving on slopes is dangerous as the vehi- cle can tip over if the centre of gravity ex- ceeds the tip-over limit on an extreme slope. The following factors reduce the hazard: small or no load low driving speed low gradient low tire inflation pressure...
C 4.74 Special operating instructions Stationary operation The vehicle can be used for stationary operation, for example, to drive a water pump via the PTO shaft. ATTENTION Place the vehicle n level ground in both di- rections. Attach the stationary equipment to the PTO shaft (1). Set the program switch to 0.
Page 74
Special operating instructions Adjusting the track width You can adjust the track width of the vehicle by mounting the wheels inside out. DANGER Observe the safety notes on a safe shutdown and jacking up for the wheel change in the maintenance instructions.

Operating the implements Operating the hydraulic cushioning* (front power lift) The hydraulic cushioning allows the ground pressure of the implement to be decreased steplessly and to increase the front axle loading. This improves the climbing ability. Press button (5). LED (7) will come on. The electronic pressure sensor (2) with a digital display al- ways indicates the current pressure of the front power lift when float position is turned off.
Page 101
C 4.74 NOTE A cushioning pressure of less than 30 bar (light implements) will result in too many con- trol operations as the accumulator can not act. Operation with implement cushioning NOTE If the implement adapts to uneven ground with delay, reduce the cushioning pressure or HYS.1.
