Loading/Unloading
WARNING:
• Always turn the auto-idle switch OFF and the pow-
er mode switch E or P when loading or unloading
the machine, to avoid unexpected speed increase
due to unintentional operation of a control lever.
• Always select the slow speed mode with the travel
mode switch. In the fast speed mode, travel speed
may automatically increase.
• NEVER steer while driving up or down a ramp as
it is extremely dangerous. If repositioning is nec-
essary, first move back to the ground or flatbed,
modify traveling direction, and begin to drive
again.
• The top end of the ramp where it meets the flatbed
is a sudden bump. Take care when traveling over it.
• Prevent possible injury from machine tipping
while the upperstructure is rotating. Keep the arm
tucked under and rotate the upperstructure slowly
for best stability.
Loading
1. The machine direction should be as follows:
With the front attachment: Travel forward with the front
attachment at the front.
Without the front attachment: Travel in reverse, as illus-
trated.
2. The centerline of the machine should be over the center-
line of the trailer.
3. Drive the machine onto the ramp slowly.
With the front attachment:
• Position the bucket with its flat surface resting on the
trailer. Angle of the arm to boom should be 90 to 110 °.
• Rest the bucket on the trailer just before the machine be-
gins to tip forward onto the trailer. Slowly travel forward
until the tracks are firmly on the trailer.
• Slightly raise the bucket. Keeping the arm tucked under,
slowly rotate the upperstructure 180 °.
• Lower the bucket onto blocks.
