General Operating Notes:
Refer to tractor Operator's Manual for Operating information on the tractor's hydraulic system.
Hydraulic systems using auxiliary valves should have them located for easy reach from the tractor
seat. Hoses should be connected in such a manner that pushing forward on valve handles lowers
the boom or dumps the bucket
WARNING
Always connect boom hoses to float section.
Weight added to rear of tractor provides better
traction and an easier, more efficient loader
operation. Extra weight along with the rear wheels,
reduces the risk of roll-over.
The smaller the tractor is, the easier it will roll. We
recommend that weight be added to rear tires with
liquid or by the installation of rear wheel weights.
Where additional weight is required, a counterweight
box can be fabricated for tractors with three-point
hitches.
Extra weight can also be added by the use of a heavy
implement mounted to the three-point hitch.
A roll-over protective structure is also recommended.
In cold weather, operate the tractor's engine at idle
speed until the hydraulic fluid is warmed up. High
engine speed when the hydraulic fluid is cold will
cause the pump to wear prematurely.
Under normal conditions, operate the tractor's engine
at 1/2 throttle. Shift the tractor into a low gear before
entering a pile of material to minimize strain on
loader arms.
