13. Operating Instructions
2-52
Work on level ground with good footing. If two or more per-
sons work together, communicate with signals selected
beforehand for safety.
Reversing procedure
Reverse the bucket according to the following procedure
1) Park the machine on level, flat ground, and lower the
bucket onto the ground.
Note :
To remove the pins, place the bucket on the ground in such
a way that it touches the ground lightly. Lowering the buck-
et down on the ground by its full weight will increase stress-
es on the pins and make the pins difficult to remove.
IMPORTANT
Keep the pins away from dirt or mud.
2) Stop the engine.
3) Clean the area around the bucket pins to prevent for-
eign material from entering the pin holes.
4) Remove pins A and B.
5) Reverse the bucket.
6) Connect the arm to hole (B), and then the link to hole (A).
[You can easily align the hole of the link and hole (A) by
lifting the bucket slightly.]
7) Install the collars and bolts into the bucket pins A and B.
8) Grease the connecting parts.
13-15. Reversing the bucket
When driving pins into the bucket with a ham-
mer, metal chips may fly. If metal chips should
get into your eyes, they can cause serious injury.
Use goggles, a hard hat and gloves for safety
when reversing the bucket.
After removing the bucket, place it on solid
ground in a stable position.
When aligning the holes for pin A and pin B, be
careful not to insert your fingers into the holes to
prevent serious injury to your fingers. Visually
check the alignment of the holes.
