5.4 Surface Preservation
RT-30 / R070T Compact Track
Loaders are designed to produce
minimal ground disturbance while
operating on finished surfaces like
turf, however, care should be
taken while operating on these
surfaces to prevent blemishes
from occurring.
Turning poses the greatest risk of surface disturbance during operation. Moving in
a straight line across turf will cause little or no disturbance, whereas tight corner-
ing will most likely cause blemishes.
While working on turf, make gradual turns. (see item A) If space is limited, turn
gradually by moving back and forth until facing the desired direction. (see item B)
5.5 Filling The Bucket
Steps: (see illustration, section 5.1)
1. Lower the lift arms until they rest on the frame.
2. Tilt the bucket slowly forward until the cutting edge engages the ground.
3. Drive the machine forward until the bucket is full of material.
4. Curl the bucket and raise the lift arms simultaneously to break the load free
from the pile.
5. Maneuver the machine clear of the pile and then lower the lift arms, keeping
the bucket curled upward, to approximately 10-12 inches (25-30 cm) above
the ground for transporting.
