6.3 Transport position
CAUTION
Keep the loader stable. Always transport the attachment as low and close to the ground
as possible. Keep the telescopic boom retracted during transport drive.
6.4 OptiFloat®
The attachment is equipped with a mechanical floating system, which enables efficient operation on uneven
terrains. Floating refers to a linkage that allows the attachment to follow the contours of the ground surface
without moving the loader boom. OptiFloat® allows the attachment to tilt sideways as well and eliminates the
need for floating of the loader boom.
Floating is adjusted by using the controls of the loader boom
from the driver's seat, when ready to begin use.
To set the optifloat linkage to correct initial position:

Position the loader boom and its quick coupling plate to
about in the middle of the extreme positions of the floating
linkage.

The middle position in the adjacent figure indicates the
correct initial setting.
The operation of floating is greatly affected by its setting. If the
floating has been set too high, the attachment is easily left
hanging in the air. When it is too low, the loader's front wheels
are easily raised off the ground.
