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.

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.

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.Practise 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.
6.2 Use
The Skip bucket is intended to be used as
a waste container, which can be picked up,
transported and emptied with AVANT
loader.
Attach the Skip bucket, that is laying e.g.
on the factory floor to the loader as
instructed on page 12.
Set the Skip bucket to transport position by
lifting it slightly off the ground with the
loader, as shown in the adjacent figure. A
full bucket can then be transported to the
desired destination and emptied with the
loader.

Always drive slowly while operating the Skip bucket. Adjust the drive speed according to the operating
conditions and the ground.

If your loader is equipped with a telescopic boom, you can utilize it for a better view to the working
area.
Avoid sharp turns while operating the Skip bucket. Lift the attachment off the ground
before sharp turns.
