Instructions for use
Check the attachment and the operating environment once more before starting to work, and that all obstacles
have been removed from the operating area. Quick inspection of the equipment and the operating area before
use are parts of ensuring safety and the best performance of the equipment.
WARNING
Risk of crushing - Never allow anyone to get under a
lifted attachment or loader boom.
Keep in mind that the
loader boom can be lowered or tilted even if the engine has
been shut down (crushing hazard). The loader is not intended
to be left to keep a load elevated for longer periods. Always
lower the attachment to a safe position before leaving the
driver's seat.
WARNING
Risk of tipping over - Avoid overload.
Loader can tip over
when handling too heavy loads, or because of dynamic
movements caused by driving with and handling of a heavy
load. Do not extend the telescopic boom when the load
approaches the lifting capacity of the loader, or when the
loader boom is in horizontal position. When you notice that
the rear wheels of the loader are about to lift from the ground,
or if the load indicator of the loader (if fitted) signals:
Lower the load calmly and retract the telescopic boom
Avoid sudden changes in speed or direction whenever load is lifted
Use additional counterweights as needed

Checks before use
Drive carefully on uneven terrain and note the effect of heavy load at the front and side of the loader to
the stability and handling of the loader.
Practice the use of the attachment and the controls of the loader in a safe area. If you are unfamiliar
with the particular loader model, it is recommended to practice its use without any attachments.
Check the attachment you are planning to use with side shift adapter according to separate specific
instructions before operating the attachment. Make sure that there are no broken components.
Use only when all pins are locked and secured in place. The locking of the side shift adapter and the
attachment includes a total of four locking pins. Ensure that all four locking pins have locked securely.
When mounting an attachment onto the side shift adapter, note that the locking pins must always be
secured manually.
