Loading a Bucket
Approach the pile with the lift arm fully
lowered and the bucket tilted slightly for-
ward until the edge contacts the ground.
Drive forward, lifting the lift arm and
tilting back the bucket to fill it. Back
away from the pile (Figure 23).
Dumping the Load Onto a Pile
Carry a loaded bucket as low as possible until the pile is reached. Gradually stop
forward motion and raise the lift arm high enough so that the bucket clears the
top of the pile. Then, slowly move the loader ahead to position the bucket to
dump the material on top of the pile. Dump the material and then back the loader
away while tilting the bucket back and lowering the lift arm.
Never push the controls into “float” position
with the bucket or attachment loaded or
raised, because this will cause the lift arm to lowering rapidly.
Dumping the Load Into a Box
Carry the loaded bucket low and approach
the vehicle or bin. Stop your approach as
close to the side of the box as possible
while allowing for clearance to raise the
lift arm and loaded bucket. Next, raise the
lift arm until the bucket clears the top of
the box and move the loader ahead to
position the bucket over the inside of the
box. Dump the material and then back
away from the box while tilting the bucket
back and lowering the lift arm
(Figure 24).
Dumping the Load Over an Embankment
Do not drive too close to an excavation or
ditch. Be sure the surrounding ground has ade-
quate strength to support the weight of the loader and the load.
Carry the loaded bucket as low as possible while traveling to the dumping area.
Stop the loader where the bucket extends half-way over the edge of the embank-
ment. Tilt the bucket forward and raise the lift arm to dump the material. Dump
the material and then back away from the embankment while tilting the bucket
back and lowering the lift arm.
