4.5.11 Leveling Operation
【Important】:
Don’t use bucket for leveling operation too excessively. Failure to
comply may result in machine damage caused by overloaded
operation.
Don’t push or pull earth with bucket when the machine
travels.
1) Push dozer blade backward to fill and level road.
2) Apply boom, arm, and bucket generally. As the figure
shows, place bucket and arm on a line basically. Operate
arm in while lifting boom slowly. Once arm passes the
vertical position, lower boom slowly and keep the
movement of bucket plane. Operating boom, arm, and
bucket at the same time enables the leveling operation more
accurate.
4.5.12 Preventing Ground Collapse
1) Place traveling motor to the rear end of machine to work
while the machine and the digging surface are in certain
angle or perpendicular.
2) Don’t place machine at the edge of trench or digging area.
3) Don’t dig earth under the machine.
4.5.13 Operation Tips
1) In digging work, don’t let bucket collide with crawler.
2) Try your best to place the excavator on horizontal
ground.
3) Don’t operate bucket as a hammer or piling machine.
Don’t slew machine to remove blocks or to break up
wall.
【Important】
In order to prevent damaging hydraulic cylinder, don’t allow
bucket cylinder to collide with ground or bucket tamping
when the bucket cylinder is fully extended (bucket fully
retracted).
4) Adjust the digging length and depth every time to ensure
every digging is fully loaded.
