OPERATING THE MACHINE

Loading Accumulated Soil
IMPORTANT:
Do not dig or scoop with machine frame
articulated.

raised off the ground. Machine traction force is
reduced and excessive loads are applied to the
undercarriage.
Scoop load while moving the machine forward as
described below. As load increases the wheels begin to
slip, slightly raise the lift arm to increase tire grip.

slowly in 1st or 2nd speed. Use 2nd speed for loose
materials.

lever to the "Roll Back" position.
