OPERATING THE MACHINE

EXCAVATION WORKS
During excavation works, ensure that you do not load the bucket
only on one side, since the equilibrium of the machine may be
impaired.
1. Drive up to the soil heap in a straight line.
2. Slow down the machine using the service brake while keep-
ing the accelerator pedal pressed down at the same time.
3. Bend the bucket edge slightly down.
4. While driving forward, move slightly the multi-function lever
of the boom in order to remove only a thin layer of the sur-
faceofthesoiltoberemoved.
5. Move the multi-function lever of the boom slightly up and
down to reduce the resistance during driving forward.
While removing, ensure that the digging force is not applied
only on one side of the bucket.
