See Figure 1-33 for following procedures.

EDC. The EDC tilts the pump swashplate in the lowering
direction, causing the bucket to open with the closing line.
The PC governs the opening speed by varying the current to
the EDC in conjunction with movement of the front hoist
control handle.
NOTE: During clamshell open bucket condition, rear drum
pawl is out and rear drum brake switch is closed.
