FUNCTIONS
4.2 Basic functions
⚠ DANGER
Lethal danger due to loads falling down from front loaders without parallel motion!
On front loaders without parallel motion, the implement tilts to the rear when lifting. As a result, the load
can fall on the driver and cause lethal injuries.
Watch the load as you are lifting. Do not lift the load when reversing.
Compensate for the increased angle on front loaders without parallel motion when lifting by
“dumping” with the implement.
⚠ WARNING
Risk of injury and material damage caused by falling loads or lowering front loader!
With dumping implements that are long or protrude far to the front, the centre of gravity can shift and
cause the pressure relief valve of the front loader to open by itself. As a result, the front loader dumps
or lowers uncontrollably and can lead to serious injuries and damage.
Observe the maximum load of the front loader (see 11 Technical specifications).
Always use sufficient counterweights at the rear of the tractor (see 5.3.2 Ballasting).
During loading work, instruct persons to exit the working area (see 2.8 Danger zones).
The front loader has 4 basic functions that are required to move the lifting arms and the implement.
Lifting
The 2 lifting cylinders are extended and thus
raise the lifting arm and the implement.
Without parallel motion, the angle between the
lifting arm and the implement remains constant
so that the implement changes its orientation.
With parallel motion, the angle between the lifting
arm and the implement changes so that the
implement maintains its original orientation.
To move the implement, see 4.5 Parallel
motion (FZ, FZ-L).
