LOADING HEAPED MATERIAL
The efficiency of loading the bucket depends on how the operator starts
the loading process:
1. Level the bucket and set it on the ground. Shift into a lower speed
range.
2. Start moving into the pile at several feet away.
3. Once the bucket is into the pile, begin curling the bucket back while
continuing to head into the pile. This will keep the material from
falling under the front of the bucket thus losing part of your load.
4. Once the bucket is full, stop moving into the pile and begin rasing
the load while continuing to curl the bucket back.
5. Raise the arm enough to allow the material in the bucket to fall
toward the back of the bucket and level off.
6. Lower the bucket back down to approximately 50 cm (20 in) above
the ground and back out of the pile of material.
7. Proceed slowly and cautiously toward your point of deposit for the
load.
LOADING A TRUCK BED OR TRAILER
When loading a truck bed or trailer always start your loading toward the front of the bed. Approach the truck or trailer slow
and cautiously keeping the load as close to the ground as possible and the front end of the machine parallel with the truck or
trailer. Once you are at your point of deposit, stop, raise the load and move toward the truck or trailer slowly. Once you are
over the center of the bed, deposit your load, back up far enough to clear the truck or trailer and lower your empty bucket.
Always travel with the load as close to the ground as possible. Remember the higher you go with the load,
the higher it forces the center of gravity on the machine, this makes your machine unstable and prone to a
rollover situation. Always take corners slowly and cautiously. Never raise the load while traveling.
