OPERATING THE MACHINE
1. Get on and off safely when entering or leaving the operator’s cab. Face the
machine. Always maintain a three point contact with the steps and handrails.
Do not use control levers as handles. Do not jump on or off the machine.
Never try to get on or off a moving machine.
2. Do not start engine or operate levers from anywhere other than the seat.
3. Before starting the engine, fasten the seat belt, make sure that the direction
lever is set in the neutral position, the parking brake switch is actuated and the
bucket is lowered to the ground.
4. Do not start engine by shorting across starter terminals.
5. Watch where you are going at all times. Watch for and avoid obstacles.
6. Never permit passengers on the machine. Keep bystanders away from the
machine during operation.
10
2.Applications
7. When working around other machines, let the other operators know what you
are doing at all times.
8. Never allow anyone to get under or near the bucket or attachment when it is
raised.
9. When raising the bucket or attachment, take extra caution to prevent it from
touching overhead wires or other obstacles. Contact with wires may cause
fatal injuries.
10. Keep away from the muffler while the engine is running and immediately after
it has stopped.
11. Hazardous operation such as on dangerous terrain, beyond the load capacity
or contrary to the intended use of the machine must be avoided as it may
cause the machine to tip over.
12. Do not drive the machine close to edges of ditches or banks which may collapse under the weight of the machine, especially when the ground is loose or
wet.
13. Slow down for turns, uneven terrain and slopes to avoid tipping over.
14. When transporting a load, keep the loader bucket as low as possible to avoid
tipping over. Be extremely careful when working on inclines.
15. Operation on slopes can be dangerous. Rain, snow, gravel soft ground, etc.
will change the ground conditions. Do not operate the machine in questionable
ground conditions. If operating on a slope or ramp, always slow down, travel
straight up and down the incline and not across. Keep the bucket as low as
possible. If you do not follow these instructions, the machine can go out of
control and tip over.
16. Avoid turning on a slope.
17. Never perform digging or shoveling with the machine in the articulated condition, or the machine may tip over.
18. Never dig or shovel at high speed. Such operation can cause the machine to
lose stability and its rear wheels to lift off the ground, which may lead to serious personal injury or fatal accidents.
19. Do not go up or down a 20° or steeper hill. Otherwise, the machine may skid
sideways or turn on its side. If the ground is not level or is soft, limit the slope
below 11.3º (20%).
20. To avoid tipping over, do not operate the machine on any site where the terrain
cannot be ascertained, such as ground covered with seeds or snow and check
for hidden projections, dips, road shoulders, etc. beforehand, and take care
not to approach them during work.
21. Be sure to ease off the accelerator pedal at the end of filling in trenches or
areas at the edge of a steep slope or pond bank or at the brow of a hill. When
the external load is reduced, the machine speed will automatically increase,
therefore reduce speed to avoid entering ditches or tipping over.
11
2.Applications
CAUTION:
22. To avoid the machine slipping or tipping over, do not operate the machine on
ungraded or soft terrain, such as land fills. Grade and compact the site beforehand at all times.
23. Do not run the engine indoors. Carbon monoxide gas from exhaust is colorless, odorless and deadly.
24. Check that no one is near the machine before starting the engine to avoid danger from the machine. Check that there are no flammable objects, such as
dead leaves, sheets of paper, or pieces of cloth near to the engine before starting the engine.
25. Be especially careful when reversing and watch the area behind the loader
exactly before starting to drive.
