Float Control
For hand/foot loaders, use your toes to push the left foot pedal all the way down to
detent the float control. For T-Bar loaders push the right control handle fully for-
ward to detent the float control. This mode allows the lowered lift arm to follow
the ground contour while traveling over changing ground conditions. For
hand/foot loaders, use your heel to push the left foot pedal up to horizontal to
deactivate. For T-bar loaders, pull the right control handle rearward to deactivate.
The float mode is automatically deactivated when the machine is shut off.
Never use the float mode with the attachment
raised, because this will cause the lift arm to
lower very rapidly. The float mode can be used where the engine has
stopped, is unable to be started, and lowering the lift arm is neces-
sary to allow the operator to exit the loader.
