OPERATION
EXPLANATION OF COMPONENTS
LIFT ARM CONTROL LEVER
This lever (6) is used to operate the lift arm.
NOTICE
Do not use the FLOAT position when lowering the bucket. Use the FLOAT
position when leveling, see "LEVELING OPERATIONS (PAGE 3-145)".
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 AND LEFT BRAKE PEDAL
The right brake pedal operates the wheel brakes.
Use the right brake pedal for normal braking operations.
When the transmission cut-off switch is at the ON position, the brakes are applied, and the transmission is returned
to Neutral at the same time.
When the transmission cut-off switch is at the OFF position, the brakes are applied, but the transmission is not
returned to Neutral.
REMARK
When using the brake and accelerator together to reduce the machine travel speed or to stop the machine while
carrying out operations, set the transmission cut-off switch to the ON position and use the brake pedal.
