3. 1D Manual Shutoff Procedure
1. Should the engine fail to stop after following the
procedure described in Section 3.1 - C, ensure that the
lift arms are lowered and grounded and the foot pedals
and steering levers are locked.
2. Exit the machine and open the rear engine compartment
access door. Pull the manual stop lever (Fig 3. 1D) and
hold until the engine has stopped. (See Section 4. 11A,
Electrical System Troubleshooting Guide).
3. 2 OPERATING PROCEDURE
1. When learning to use the loader operate at a slow rate.
2. Take advantage of the efficient operation of the loader.
Keep the travel distance as short as possible. Keep the
work area small so the cycle time is short.
3. Keep the work area as level as possible.
4. Decrease cycle time by “skid” turning (See Section
2.6) rather than a go backward-go forward turn.
5. Fill the bucket to rated capacity. Turning is easier with
a full load than with a partial load. Keep the loaded
bucket close to the ground when transporting.
6. Tilt the bucket as you raise the boom arms or drive up
a slope. This will prevent material from falling off the
back of the bucket.
7. Do not drive across a slope. Always go up or down a
slope with the heavy end of the loader pointing up
towards the top of the slope.
3. 3 FILLING FROM A PILE
Push down on the toe of the boom arm pedal and lower the
boom completely down. Push the toe of the bucket pedal and
place the cutting edge of the bucket on the ground (Fig. 3.
3A). For hand control units, move the L.H. control lever
towards you and lower the boom completely down. Move the
R.H. control lever away from you (Fig. 3. 3A) and place the
cutting edge of the bucket on the ground.
3 OPERATION
Always let the engine
warm completely before
you begin operation each
day.
IMPORTANT
To avoid personal injury,
lower the boom arms, shut
off the engine, raise the
seat bar and cycle the
hydraulics to ensure they
are locked. Then, unlatch
the seat belt and exit the
loader. Do not enter or exit
with the engine running
unless as specified in this
manual or under specific
service and backhoe
operating procedures.
