Operating instructions
Starting the engine
Before starting the engine do the daily checks, (see “Daily
inspections” on page 50). Adjust the seat and mirrors
(if fitted) so that you have a good working position and
unrestricted field of vision from the driver’s seat. Check
that all controls function correctly. Make sure that the
operating area is safe. Read and follow operating and
safety instructions.
Avoid unintended movements of
the attachment - Risk of injury to
bystanders.
If the auxiliary hydraulics
is switched on during starting and there
is a hydraulically operated attachment
on the machine, the attachment can
move suddenly and cause a dangerous
situation.

hydraulics control lever is in neutral
position during starting.

hydraulics control buttons on the
joystick (if fitted) when starting.

the loader.

spaces or insufficiently ventilated
spaces, i.e. open garage door first.
Engine block heater (option)
The loader can be equipped,
as an option, with an engine
block heater. The engine block
