CONTROLS
FLOAT BUTTON
• It is very dangerous to set the lift arms
to the float mode while the bucket is
raised too high, as the bucket is likely to
fall. Lower the bucket to a height of 30
cm (12 in.) or less above the ground
before setting the lift arms to the float
mode.
• Do not travel forward with the lift arms
in the float mode.
Use this button to set the lift arms to the float
mode.
Setting the float mode
Lower the bucket to a height of 30 cm (12
in.) or less above the ground.
1. Tilt the right control lever forward a little.
(Lift Arms Lower)
For the H pattern, tilt the left control lever

2. Depress the float button while the lever is
tilted forward.
(The arm float indicator lamp will
illuminate.)
3. Release the lever.
To cancel the float mode
4. Depress the float button again or tilt the
right control lever backward.
For the H pattern, tilt the left control lever
to the left.
Lift arms in the float mode
While in the float mode, the bucket moves
up and down in response to the “bumps and
dips” on the ground surface.
