Dual-Hand Controls
Your loader may be equipped with the
dual-hand control option. The left handle
controls the left side drive and the lift.
The right handle controls the right side
drive and the tilt.
Drive Controls
Forward, reverse, speed and turning
maneuvers are accomplished by pushing
and pulling the handles. To go forward,
push both handles forward; for reverse,
pull both handles rearward. For turning,
move one handle farther forward or rearward than the other handle. Turn direc-
tion is determined by which handle is moved farther forward; to turn left, move
the right handle farther forward than the left handle; to turn right, move the left
handle farther forward than the right handle. For sharp turns, move the handles in
opposite directions.
Moving the handles farther from neutral increases the speed steadily to the max-
imum travel speed. Tractive effort decreases as speed increases. To get maximum
tractive effort, move the handles only slightly away from the neutral position. The
engine will stall if the handles are moved too far forward when loading the
bucket.
Be sure the controls are in neutral before
starting the engine. Operate the controls
gradually and smoothly. Excessive speed and quick control move-
ments without regard for conditions and circumstances are haz-
ardous and could cause an accident.
Lift/Tilt Controls
Moving the lift arm and tilting the attachment are accomplished by rotating the
control handles. To raise the lift arm, rotate the left handle outward (to the left);
to lower the lift arm, rotate the left handle inward (to the right). To tilt the
attachment forward and down, rotate the right handle; to tilt the attachment
up and back, rotate the right handle inward.
Note: The speed of the lift/tilt motion is directly proportional to the amount of
control movement and engine speed.
To place the lift arm into the detent (“float”) position, push the left handle all the
way inward. This position allows the lowered lift arm to float while traveling over
changing ground conditions.
Never push the lift/tilt control into the “float”
position with the attachment loaded or raised,
because this will cause the lift arm to lower very rapidly.
