Filling the Bucket
Approach bank or stockpile slowly with bucket horizontal at ground level.
With engine running at full throttle, keep machine in forward motion until
bucket isfull. Penetratebucket straight into pile about 6to 8 inches (152or 203
mm). Then coordinate loader arm lift motion and bucket rollback motion so
that the rear of the bucket is filled as the machine movesforward. Too much
rollback will underfill the bucket; too little rollback will overload the bucket.
Engine Speed and Transmission Range
Place the transmission range selector lever in low range during loading
operations and when transporting a load.
Keep the engine operating at high rpm while dumping the bucket or
digging with bucket.
NOTE:
Long periods of operation at or near stall speed (wheels and/or
bucket moving slowly at maximum engine speed) may cause converter oil
overheating. Watch the converter temperature gauge - if the needleenters the
red zone, select a lower gear or reduce load.
Transporting a Load
When backing out and transporting a load, carry the bucket just high
enough to clear obstacles in the loader's path. Raising the bucket higher than
necessary reduces traction and stability.
A
CAUTION:
Always carryload low.
