• The hydraulic drift of the work equipment (the amount of the work equipment moves down under its
own weight when it is stopped in a raised position) also becomes greater. Do not stop the work
equipment in air.
• Do not suddenly swing, lower, or stop the work equipment. It is dangerous that the machine may tip
over.
• Do not suddenly extend or retract the boom cylinder rod. The shocks may cause the machine to tip
over.
WARNING
NOTE: When calculating the allowable mass of attachments, the mass of the bucket, see the following
“EXPLANATION OF LIFT CAPACITY CHART (1-PIECE BOOM) (5-3)”, should be taken into consideration.
For an attachment not intended to bear a load, for example a breaker, it should not exceed the minimum
lift capacity of the machine as shown on the related lift capacity charts (see SPECIFICATIONS section
Chapter 5).
For attachments intended to bear a load, for example clamshell bucket or grapple, the combined mass
of the attachment plus load, should not exceed the maximum lift capacity figures as shown in the relat-
ed lift capacity charts (see SPECIFICATIONS section Chapter 5).
