6.2 Checks before use

Before starting work, remove large items that can’t be collected with the broom from the working area.

Drive carefully on uneven terrain and note the effect of heavy load at the front of the loader to the
stability and handling of the loader.

Before each use, check the operation of the broom and ensure that the brush can rotate freely. Check
that there is no string or other foreign material coiled around the broom.

Ensure that bystanders are at a safe distance when operating the equipment. Do not let anyone to
enter danger area of the boom or to stay directly in front of the loader. Also make sure that it is safe to
reverse with the loader. Never assume that bystanders will remain where you last saw them;
especially children are often attracted to the moving equipment.

Check the general condition of the attachment and the loader, and check for possible hydraulic oil
leaks. The attachment must not be used, if there is a fault in the hydraulic system of the loader or the
attachment. Refer to Chapter 7 for maintenance instructions.

Operate the attachment and the controls of the loader only when seated on the driver’s seat. Ensure
that the loader and the attachment are used in a safe manner and as intended. Do not allow children
to operate the equipment.

Never operate the loader or attachments while under the influence of alcohol, drugs, medication that
may impair judgement or cause drowsiness, or if not otherwise medically fit to operate the equipment.

Remember correct working methods and avoid leaving the driver’s seat unnecessarily.
Regularly clean the loader oil cooler core; refer to the operator's manual of the loader for
more instructions. Overheating oil decreases the power and affects the service life of the
hydraulic components of both the attachment and the loader.
