Operate at right angles to the ditch, taking as big a bite
as the tractor can handle.
Leave dirt that drifts over the side of the bucket for final
clean up.
Pile dirt on the high side for easier backfilling on a
slope.
6.11. HANDLING LARGE HEAVY OBJECTS
CAUTION: Handling large heavy objects can be extremely dangerous due to:
•
Danger of rolling the tractor over.
•
Danger of upending the tractor.
•
Danger of object rolling or sliding down the loader boom onto the operator.
CAUTION: If you must perform the above work, protect yourself by:
•
Never lifting the load higher than necessary to clear the ground when moving.
•
Adding rear ballast to the tractor to compensate for the load.
•
Never lifting large objects with equipment that does not have an anti-rollback device.
•
Moving slowly and carefully; avoiding rough terrain.
6.12. BACK GRADING
When back grading, the angle between the bottom of
the bucket and the ground must not be more than
15 degrees. Failure to follow these instructions could
cause loader tilt cylinders to fail and void warranty.
