OPERATION OPERATION

LOADING OPERATIONS 3
Select the method of operation which will give the minimum amount of turning and travel in order to provide the
most efficient method for the jobsite.
WARNING
q Always keep the jobsite flat, and do not operate the steering wheel suddenly or apply the brakes sud-
denly when the lift arm is raised with a loaded bucket. This is dangerous.
q Never thrust the bucket in when traveling at high speed (when loading soil or crushed rock). This is
dangerous.
q When the machine is traveling or the work equipment is raised, the moment that the E.C.S.S. switch
(option) is turned ON, the work equipment will move.
q If the E.C.S.S. system (option) is switched on, the work equipment may move.
NOTICE
q If the tires slip, the tire life will be reduced, so do not allow the tires to slip during operation.
q Avoid excessive bucket shaking.
CROSS DRIVE LOADING
Always set the wheel loader facing at a right angle to the stock-
pile. After digging in and scooping up the load, drive the
machine straight back in reverse, then bring the dump truck in
between the stock pile and the wheel loader.
This method requires the least time for loading, and is
extremely effective in reducing the cycle time.
