Transporting with a full bucket
Transporting full buckets in the raised position is dangerous –
Accident hazard!
Pay particular attention to this when turning or performing machine travel on
slopes. The lower the bucket and the center of gravity, the less danger there is
of tipping over.
To avoid accidents:
☞ Tilt in the bucket fully
☞ Raise the loader unit to transport position – see fig. 73
No transport on public roads with a full bucket!
• Get informed on and follow the legal regulations of your country.
• The load stabilizer option can be switched on in off-road applications to dampen
the pitching movements and to reduce the loss of material
☞ Tilt the bucket all the way in A
☞ Raise the loader unit to transport position
