OPERATION
EXPLANATION OF COMPONENTS
LIFT ARM CONTROL LEVER
This lever (6) is used to operate the lift arm.
Position (a): RAISE
When the lift arm control lever is pulled further from
the RAISE position, the lever is stopped in this
position until the lift arm reaches the preset position of
the kickout, and the lever is returned to the HOLD
position.
Position (b): HOLD
The lift arm is kept in the same position.
Position (c): LOWER
Position (d): FLOAT
The lift arm moves freely under external force.
BRAKE PEDAL
WARNING
When traveling downhill, always use the right brake pedal, and use the
braking force of the engine together with the brake.
Do not use the brake pedal repeatedly more than necessary. If the brake
is used too frequently, the brake will overheat. If this happens, the
brakes will not work, so this may lead to a serious accident.
Do not put your foot on this pedal unless necessary.
These pedals (7) operate the brakes.
RIGHT BRAKE PEDAL
The right brake pedal operates the wheel brakes.
Use the right brake pedal for normal braking operations.
LEFT BRAKE PEDAL
The left brake pedal operates the wheel brakes.
When the transmission cut-off switch is in the ON position, and if this brake pedal is depressed, wheel brakes are
applied and the transmission is set to the neutral position at the same time. If the transmission cut-off switch is at
OFF, the left brake pedal acts in the same way as the right brake pedal.
REMARK
When the accelerator is being used for operating the work equipment, always set the transmission cut-off switch to
the ON position and use the left brake pedal to slow or stop the machine.
