Invoi'ied your safetyi

For your own protection and for the protection of others nnmr the machine, study ; foUowing list of

safety precautions. Fuifiii your responsibility oi informing anyone else operating the echirse of these
precautions.

Improper use of a loader can cause serious injury c r death

Learn and practice safe , se of controls before operating. It is your respcnsibility to understand and
follow manufacturer’s instructions on machine operation and service, and to observe pertinent laws and
regulations, it is also your responsibility to be certain that anyone, other than yourself operating the
loader, is aware of safe operating practices and potential hazards.

Clear the area of other persons.

Operate the loader from the tractor seat only.

Prohibit others, especially children, from climbing or riding on machine or being too close while

machine is operating.

Do not stand, walk or work under a raised loader or attachment unless it is securely blocked in position.

Accidental movement of control lever or leak in hydraulic system could cause loader to drop, resulting in
severe injury.

Do not lift or carry personnel on a loader or attachment; a slip or fall could cause bodily injury.

Load on raised bucket or fork can roll back onto operator area, causing serious injury or death.

When loading material from a large pile, remove the top level first to prevent material from falling, caus

ing death, personal injury, or damage to equipment.

Remove Mid Mount Mower (if equipped) during loader operation.

30-3

SAFETY

Safety Precautions

Do not carry round bales on loader unless loader Is equipped with a restraining device to prevent caie frc:n
rolling down loader frame, resulting in severe injury or death to the operator.

Always use adequate lights or safety warnings when transporting machine on public roads and a.de' ca;k.

Be certain SMV emblem is visibie. Check with your local law enforcemeni agencies for soec fic re
quirements.

Avoid loose fill, rocks and holes; they can be dangerous for loader operaiicn or movemeri.

Be careful when working on inclines.

Allow for the loader length when making turns.

Before disconnecting hydraulic lines, relieve all hydraulic pressure. Escaping hydraulic oii under pressure

can have sufficient force to penetrate the skin, causing serious personal injury.

If injured by escaping fluid, obtain medical treatment immediately.
Do not operate the loader if the fittings are leaking or if the hoses are damaged. A sudden line burst would

cause the loader to drop suddenly, causing Injury to personnel or damage to the tractor or ioader.
A ioader bucket or attachment should be transported in a low position at slow ground speeds, especially if

the ground is irregular. Make turns slowly and use the tractor brakes cautiously. A fuii bucket in the raised

position alters the center of gravity location of the machine and increases the possibility of mishaps.

Lower all components before leaving the machine. All attachments should be in closed position and
Bucket resting on Ground. Elevated components can fall and cause serious injury.

Never work beneath a raised loader unless it is securely blocked with a safety bar. A suitable safety bar can

be fabricated following dimensions in the-illustration below.

OPERATiOK

Loader Hydraulic Controls

Loader Hydraulics are activaiad by Engaging

Tractor front P.T.O. The P.T.O. switch is located

on the RH side of the instrument Panel.

The loader Hydraulic Valve Features Single

Lever Control. Refer to figure 5 for reference to
Loader Control Functions.

The Loader Hydraulic Valve Lift Cylinder circuit

incorporates a “Float” position which allows the
loader bucket to follow ground contours. The
“Float” position is engaged by shifting the con

trol lever forward into “Detent”. The Loader

Hydraulic Valve will remain in “Detent” until the

operator pulls the control lever out of the “De
tent” position.

Refer to “Scraping” operation for recommended
use of “Float” position.

Single Lever Control

Fig. 5

70-2

QPEBArmk

Drive straight into pile with the bucket cutting
edge level with the ground, in order to prevent
possibility of damaging tractor or loader -

Do not ram into pile at high speed.

Do not attempt to turn tractor while loading.

As the bucket begins to fill with material,
gradually roll the bucket back and raise the
loader to increase “Fiji” capacity. This pro
cedure also results in the material being remov
ed in layers from the top for maximum loading ef
ficiency.

When the bucket is full, raise loader so that the
bucket is clear of material and slowly back out of
pile.

For maximum loading efficiency, minimize angle
of turn and distance between the Loading and
Unloading points.

Loading

Transporting Material

Transporting material to “Unloading Point” wr;h

Loader Bucket as low as possible to prevent

spillage and maintain maximum Tractor/Load:?’'

stability.

Important:

During transport the loader should not be in a
position that will impair operator’s vision.

Observe the following safety messages.

WARNING. A loaded bucket should be
transported in a low position at slow ground
speeds, especially if the ground is irregular.

Make turns slowly and use the tractor brakes

cautiously. A full bucket in the raised position

alters the center of gravity location of the unit

and increases the possibility of mishaps.

A WARNING! Do not lift or carry personnel

on a loader or attachment; a slip or fall could

cause bodily injury.

70-3

OPERATION

Unloading

As the tractor approaches the “Unloading

Point”, raise the loader to the height required for

clearance to “Dump” bucket.

Drive slowly to position bucket above

“Unloading Point”, stop tractor and dump
bucket.

Note:
Do not raise loader higher than required for
“Dumping” clearance.

As “Dumping” clearance height increases, the
bucket position must be adjusted to maintain a
level bucket to prevent excessive spillage of
material from bucket.

DANGER. Load on raised bucket can roll

back onto operator area causing severe injury or

death. Load must be kept level.

DANGER. Avoid any overhead wires or

obstacles when loader is raised, to avoid damage
or possible death by electrocution.

Scraping

When scraping, the “Float” position should be

utilized to maintain the bucket firmly on the

ground and at the same time allow the bucket to
follow ground contours.

The bucket should be positioned level to the

ground during “Scraping” operations.

70-4

BackfiHing/Backgrading

When “Backfilling” or Backgrading”, position
the bucket so it is level on the ground. Do not
dump materia! from bucket following each pass
as additional weight of materiai in bucket will
assist in“Backgrading” and increases loader effi
ciency during “Backfilling”.

Controlled Rate of Loader Fynct^cn

nom

By “Feathering” the Control Lever, reduced

operational speeds can be controlled. This ac
tion controls the position of the Valve Spool in
the Valve Body and regulates flow of oil to/from
cylinders.

It is important to utilize this operational practice

when lowering Loader Boom when the Bucket is

loaded with material.

Hydraulic Cylinder Leakage Test

General

Ai CAUTION!

Safety glasses should be worn when performing
Cylinder Leakage Tests.

When performing Cylinder Leakage Tests the

tractor engine should be operating at mid R.P.M.

to ensure the hydraulic system reache's the

Relief Valve Setting.
During tests, the System Relief Valve governing

maximum pressure to the Loader Cylinders will
be “Open”, (system is at Relief Valve Setting).

Note:
Do not maintain Hydraulic System at Relief Valve

Setting pressure for more than 20 second inter
vals to prevent overheating hydraulic system.

Fig. 12

The Test Procedures outlined enable the

cylinders to be checkec for Rod Seal Leakage
(External Leakage) and Piston Seal Leakage in
both directions (Internal Leakage).

Test Procedure

Lower Loader to the ground, shut tractor off and

disconnect cylinders as follows:

Lift Cylinder Test - disconnect from Subframe

(Rod End).

Bucket Cylinder Test - disconnect from Bucket

(Rod End).
Support the Cylinders to prevent excessive

strain on hydraulic hoses in a position that will
allow the Cylinders to be completely
“Extended”.

90-3

SERVICE

Hydraulic Cylinder Leakage Test

Rod Seal Leakage Test

Start tractor and “Retract” Cylinders completely.
Continue to hold Control Valve Lever in position

to “Retract Cylinders” and check for evidence of
oil leakage past the Rod Seal (External Leakage).

Note:
On cylinders that have been in service, Rod Seal
leakage is usually indicated by accumulation of
dirt/oil at rod end of Cylinder Body.

If leakage is evident, the cylinder(s) should be
removed and disassembled for inspection and
repair.

Note:
Inspect Cylinder Rod for pitting, deterioration or
damage to the chrome finish. Any excessive
damage to the chrome finish reduces the ability
of the Rod Seal to seal properly.

If Rod Seal tests are satisfactory proceed to
Piston Seal Assembly Leakage Test.

Piston Seal Leakage Test

With cylinders in the fully “Rétractée“ jîôsih'ûn
and tractor shut off, disconnect the hvdrau''c

lines from the base end of cylinders • ?.
hydraulic hese from the cylinder base

to a container (to catch oil during leak'd^« tes t.
Start tractor and place Loader

Lever in the position to “Retract” (

“Hold”.

Check for oil leakage from base end port of
cylinders.

A constant dripping or very slight flow of oil is

normal. If a steady flow of oil is, evident ex

cessive wear or damage of the Piston Seal is in
dicated and the cylinder(s) should be removed
and disassembled for inspection and repair.

If Piston Seal Leakage Test in “Retract” position
indicates Piston Seal is satisfactory, reinstall
hydraulic hoses and fully extend cylinders to per

form test in “Extend” position.

Oentr:

‘ /iir

With cylinders in the fully “Extended” position
and tractor shut off disconnect the hydraulic

lines from the rod end of cylinders. Route a
hydraulic hose from the cylinder rod end ports to

a container (to catch oil during leakage test).
Start tractor and place Loader Control Valve

Lever in the position to “Extend” Cylinders and

“Hold”.
Check for oii leakage from rod end port of

cylinders.
A constant dripping or very slight flow of oil is

normal. If a steady flow of oil is evident ex
