12 HT 12 Unimog 1.96
5.2 Making the backhoe excavator ready for
operation
• Start the Unimog according to the Unimog -
operating instructions and let the engine run at
idle speed.
• Lower the excavator from transport to working
position according to chapter 6.
• Switch on the power take-off (8/1) in the
operator’s cab of the Unimog.
• Increase the engine speed through external
hand adjusting lever to nominal speed of 1,550
rpm (approx. ½ gas).
Note
Only switch on power take-off during excavator
operation.
• Stabilising the backhoe excavator
• Release the parking brake of the Unimog.
• Apply the steering lock.
Note
When working with the backhoe excavator
slewed sideways we recommend employing an
additional support in order to improve the
stability of the Unimog with the HT 12 attached.
When the excavator is slewed sideways, the
additional support (9/1) on the supporting foot,
to which the excavator is slewed, must be
employed.
When driving on public roads, the additional
support must be dismounted.
