• Do not strike the blade against a rock or
stone.
This may damage the blade or hydraulic cylinder.
• Do not use the machine's lowering force.

Do not use the machine's lowering force to
dig the ground.
• When excavating a hard rock, keep the ma-
chine's tracks flat on the ground.
Note
It is also recommended to break hard rock
into several pieces using other means to
prevent damage to the machine.

When you retract the equipment for side move-
ment and transport, make sure that the bucket and
blade do not come into contact.
