method
1. Position
a truck at an angle of about 60 degrees
from the shoveling direction of the machine.
2. After digging and shoveling with the bucket, move
the machine backward and turn the steering wheel
to position the machine perpendicular (90 degrees)
to the truck.
3. Then move the machine forward to load sand onto
the truck.
A smaller angle between the machine and truck will
provide a shorter cycle time and more efficient
operation.
