WARNING
Personal injury and machine damage hazards from
abrupt directional changes. Actuating the direction
switch when the loader is moving will cause the
moving loader to change direction abruptly.
► Do not change the travel direction switch posi-
tion when the loader is moving in either forward
or reverse.
►
Before and after changing direction with the
loader stopped, conrm that the indicator lights
are in agreement with the intended direction
selected.
► If the direction control does not respond or the
indicator light does not illuminate, move the ma-
chine to a safe location, lower the loader arms
until the attachment is resting on the ground,
stop the engine and inform the supervisor of a
service need.
►
Do not operate the loader until a technician
has restored the function before operating the
machine.
Be careful when traveling in snowy and icy condi-
tions. Reduce your travel speed considerably in
the event of bad weather.
If the loader is equipped with the optional equip-
ment »Backup alarm«, a backup alarm sounds
when reverse gear is engaged. The sound is to
warn persons who are in the vicinity of the loader
that the loader is going into reverse.
