3.7.3 Use of the Self-loading
Your machine may be equipped with a self-loading mechanism consisting of an
anterior bucket that has a hydraulic command.
.
CAREFUL: During movement the auto-loading device must remain raised
above the surface of the land to avoid collision with the terrain and must
be in a position that does not obstruct visibility.
Loading: To be able to load the body using the auto-loading tool, you must follow
this procedure:
•
advance the machine towards the pile of material maintaining the ben- na in a
horizontal position;
•
raise the shovel by pulling the lever towards yourself until you have poured the
contents into the body.
Repositioning: Push the lever forwards until the bucket has lowered to the correct
height from the ground.
Floating (auto-levelling): the auto-loading tool may also be used to function as an
auto-levelling device, useful, for example for levelling ground. To block the bucket
in the floating position you must push the auto- loading lever forward past the
lowering position until you have heard a click (the lever remains in stable position).
CAREFUL: During the driving and movement of the machine, the self-
loading device must not remain the the floating position.
