5 Operation
5.2.4 Working with the loader
DANGER
Always use seat belts when working with the
swivel shovel loader.
Generally, all work is carried out in gear stage “I” (4-9/1).
For special tasks which ask for a more sensitive control of
the speed or a higher engine speed at reduced travel
speed, gear stage “Alpha max.” can be selected. The travel
speed can thus be limited to 5 km/h.
NOTE
The switch from gear stage 2 to stage 1 occurs
only after the speed equals or drops below
5 km/h.
If the speed is more than 5 km/h when the switch
occurs, the display of the selected gear stage
(4-5/5) starts to flash (the selected gear stage
does not engage while the display is flashing).
(1) Lock both doors.
(2) Release the parking brake (4-9/7).
(3) Select the gear stage (4-9/1).
(4) Select the travel direction (4-9/5).
(5) Press the accelerator pedal (4-7/3).
NOTE
- To attain full performance, the combined
action of propulsion and of the working
hydraulics is necessary. It is up to the operator
to control the available power using the
accelerator, the inching function and the
hand lever for the working hydraulics.
- The travel speed and the thrust force are
altered exclusively by depressing the
accelerator pedal.
- When driving up gradients, the travel speed
decreases in spite of full throttle in favour of
the thrust force.
- The thrust forces and travel speeds are the
same in the forward and the reverse direction.
CAUTION
- If the hydraulic oil temperature indicator lamp
(4-6/9) lights up during operation, the loader
must be switched off immediately, the cause
must be determined by a hydraulics expert
and the malfunction must be eliminated.
- The attachment may be locked/unlocked only
when the engine is at idling speed so that the
insertion/retraction speed of the locking bolts
does not become too high.
