• Support the blade on both sides.
When you use the blade as a support, press the
blade down on both sides.
• Pay attention to the blade during
excavation.
When carrying out a deep excavation on the
ground in front of the blade, make sure that the
blade does not come into contact with the boom
cylinder. Place the blade at the back if it is not in
use.
• Do not lift loads without a suitable fastening
device; it is strictly forbidden to wrap a sling
around your machine's accessory or suspend it
to a bucket tooth.
