Operation
Excavating trenches
• Excavating trenches is more efficient
☞ by using a suitable bucket for this work and positioning the tracks parallel to the limit
line of the trench.
☞ In case of large trenches, first excavate the side sections and then the center section.
Loading
• Loading in confined areas with a limited angle of rotation is more efficient
☞ by positioning the truck so as to ensure maximum visibility for the driver of the exca-
vator.
• Loading material on trucks is easier and faster
☞ if the hydraulic excavator is placed at the rear end of the truck and not at the sides.
Grading
• Use the stabilizer blade to fill in trenches and to grade surfaces.
Information!
Work on level ground. Grade with the stabilizer blade first in case of sloping
ground
Excavating trenches sideways
• The machine can be used for excavating trenches sideways in confined areas
☞ by rotating the upper carriage and swiveling the main boom (combined position and
movement of both).
