time move the dipper out a little way. This will keep
soil from building up under the machine.

Do not use the side of the excavation to stop the
bucket when swinging back into position for the next
dig. Similarly, do not use the side of the bucket to push
soil into the excavation. Both these practices will
damage the machine.

3 Slew the machine or swing the bucket to the dump
area.
Start dumping as the bucket approaches the pile. Do
not waste time by dumping too far from the
excavation. Dump close to the start dig position.
Swing the bucket back to the excavation and start the
next dig.
Backfill the excavation by loading the bucket with soil
from the pile. Do not push the soil with the side of the
bucket.
