◼ To finish the near wall, lift, and
crowd in. Keep the edges of the
bucket horizontal.
Backfilling
Backfill by lifting the bucket over the spoil pile and then crowding in. Pull both the crowd and lift
levers for smooth, even backfilling.
IMPORTANT: Do not backfill using the swing circuit and dragging the bucket sideways.
Doing so can cause damage to the dipper stick boom, the swing cylinders, or the mainframe.
