8. SLOWLY drive the loader away from the swivel
assembly.
9. Reinstall the two locking pins for use during
reassembly.
To reinstall the assembly, simply reverse the steps
above.
LOADING MATERIAL
1. Raise conveyor to work height. (For better
performance of the belt tracking, place support pins
in holes in the rear stabilizer).
2. Set the deector to the desired position. (Figure
4-10)
3. Using the moldboard lever, align the pointers on the
moldboard.
4. Using the conveyor lever, SLOWLY oat the
moldboards down until they touch the ground and
take lever out of oat.
5. Return to the conveyor lever, lifting the moldboards
so they are slightly touching the ground.
6. Place the moldboard lever in oat at this time. (This
will put the minimum amount of weight on the cutting
edges for prolonged life).
7. Align truck with conveyor.
8. Set RPM to desired speed (full RPM for maximum
production).
9. Pull the feeder chain lever to desired speed.
10. Pull discharge conveyor lever to full speed, unless
using swivel conveyor.
11. Using the direction lever, move forward into the
material. Be sure not to overload the belt.
12. Using the conveyor lever, raise and lower the
front of the conveyor as needed, ensuring the
moldboards are at on the ground while keeping the
moldboard lever in oat.
ALWAYS watch out for overhead
obstacles while operating conveyor.
13. The deector may be used to position the material in
the material truck or where desired.
14. For quick stopping, apply the foot brake. Release
the brake to resume speed or return the direction
lever to neutral.
TRANSPORTING
When transporting the loader on a trailer, the vehicle
should be large enough to safely handle the size and
weight of the loader in all driving situations.
1. Park the loader on a level surface engage the park
brake.
2. Block the wheels in both directions so the loader
will not roll.
3. Lower the deector, conveyor and cutting edges.
4. Switch the machine to low gear using the 2-Speed
gear switch on the travel control panel. (Page 3-7)
5. Load the machine onto the trailer.
6. Block the wheels in both directions.
7. Use enough chains with the strength to secure the
loader, ensuring it will not move during transport.
Connect chains to the factory-installed D-Ring tie
downs provided on various areas of the machine for
transporting purposes. (Figure 4-14)
