(A) Float (B) Surface material
6. Loading from a bank
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or death:
• Be extra careful when working on inclines.
• When operating on a slope, always operate the
loader up and down the slope, never across the
slope.
• Choose a forward gear that provides a safe ground
speed and power for loading.
NOTE :
– Loader lift and break-away capacity
diminish as loading height is increased.
• Side cutting is a good technique for cutting down a
big pile. Wheel width should not exceed the bucket
width for the side cutting procedure.
• If the pile sides are too high and liable to cause
cave-in, use the loader to break down the sides
until a slot can be cut over the top.
• Another method for large dirt piles is to build a ramp
to approach the pile.
• It is important to keep the bucket level when
approaching a bank or pile. This will help avoid
gouging the work area.
