Excavating Controls (cont’d)
Boom Swing
Note: The pedal casting incorporates arrows which indicate
boom swing direction.
Note that the swing ram incorporates ‘end damping’ at the
limits of its travel. This reduces the speed of the piston at
each end of its travel, thereby eliminating ‘shock loading’ of
the system.
Swing Boom Left
To swing the boom to your left A, press the toe end of the
pedal. Release the pedal when the excavator end has
reached the desired position.
Swing Boom Right
To swing the boom to your right B, press the heel end of the
pedal. Release the pedal when the excavator end has
reached the desired position.
!
CAUTION
When buckets 750 mm (29 in) or wider are fitted to the
machine, use extreme caution in operation to avoid
contact with the cab.
Boom Swing Stop
A boom swing stop can be fitted to restrict the kingpost
swing angle when wide buckets are installed.
