6.2.2
Maximum load
Maximum load for the Side shift adapter is 800 kg, and the Side shift adapter must be removed when handling
heavier pallets or large buckets. Always refer to the operator's manual of the loader for the safe load of the
loader in different operating conditions.
Use the Side shift adapter only when needed for shifting an attachment sideways. The side shift adapter may
get damaged, if it is used for other than lifting or handling of loads.
WARNING
Risk of tipping over - Use the side shift adapter only when needed.
The side shift
adapter reduces the tipping load of the loader by displacing the centre of gravity further
away from the loader. Take the reduction of the tipping load of the loader into account
when handling heavy loads: See the operator's manual of the loader for information about
the effect of distance of the load to the tipping load of the loader.
DANGER
Risk of serious personal injuries - Never leave the equipment running unattended.
Start the attachment only when it is ready to be used. Do not go near the equipment
when another person operates the controls of the loader.
6.3
Working on uneven ground
Extra caution is needed when using the equipment on inclined terrains and slopes. Drive slowly especially on
inclined, uneven, or slippery surfaces, and avoid sudden changes in speed or direction. Operate the controls
of the loader with careful and smooth movements. Watch out for ditches, holes on the ground, and other
obstacles, as hitting an obstacle may cause the loader to tip over.
Maximum lifting capacity can not be achieved on inclined terrain. On horizontally tilted terrain the load must
not be lifted high. The loader frame articulation should be kept straight when lifting heavy loads; turning the
load during lifting operation will affect the stability of the loader and may lead to overturning of the machine.
