The following illustrations are suggested operating
techniques for added safety and efficiency.
A
cAUTioN
A
DO NOT LIFT ROUND HAY BALES. ROUND
BALES CAN ROLL DOWN LOADER ARMS
CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO
OPERATOR.
FILLING THE BUCKET
Approach and enter the pile with a level bucket.
Roll bucket back gradually as the loader moves
through the pile.
�
The lift and rollback of the bucket will increase
efficiency because ....
\
\�
a level bucket throughout the lifting cycle resists
bucket lift or breakaway.
RAISING THE BUCKET
A
cAUTioN
A
MAKE SURE MATERIAL IN BUCKET CANNOT
ROLL OUT AND DOWN ON TRACTOR WHEN
BUCKET IS- RAISED TO FULL HEIGHT. KEEP
CLEAR OF OVERHEAD OBSTRUCTIONS
SUCH AS TREES, LIMBS OR POWER LINES
WHEN RAISING THE BUCKET.
A
wARNING
A
DO NOT LIFT OR CARRY ANYONE IN THE
BUCKET OR ON ANY OTHER PORTION OF
THE LOADER OR LOADER ATTACHMEN�
INADVERTENT MOVEMENT OF THE LOADER
OR A
IT
ACHMENT COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS
INJURY OR DEATH FROM FALLING OR
CRUSHING.
A
CAUTION
A
DO NOT PUSH ANYTHING WITH BUCKET
WHEN LIFTED ABOVE HEIGHT SHOWN
ABOVE. DOING SO CAN CAUSE EXTENSIVE
DAMAGE TO TRACTOR AND/OR LOADER.
A
cAUTION
A
POSITION THE BUCKET JUST BELOW THE
LEVEL OF THE TRACTOR HOOD, FOR
MAXIMUM STABILITY AND VISIBILITY,
WHETHER THE BUCKET IS LOADED OR
EMPTY.
A
cAUTION
A
WHEN OPERATING THE LOADER ON A HILL
OR SLOPE, KEEP THE BUCKET AS LOW AS
POSSIBLE. THIS KEEPS THE BUCKET'S
CENTER OF GRAVITY AS LOW AS
POSSIBLE. THIS WILL GIVE YOU MAXIMUM
TRACTOR STABILITY, AND AVOID TIPPING.
r::�.
'���
A
CAUTION
A
WHEN TRANSPORTING THE LOAD, KEEP
THE BUCKET AS LOW AS POSSIBLE TO
RESIST TIPPING, IN CASE A WHEEL DROPS
IN A RUT. THIS WILL AVOID TIPPING AND
POSSIBLE INJURY.
DUMPING THE BUCKET
Lift the bucket high enough to clear the side of the
vehicle. Move the tractor in as close to the side of the
vehicle as possible, then dump the bucket.
Sidecutting is the best method

stockpiles. If the sides of the pile are too high, use the
loader to
pull
them down and reduce the possibility
of slides.
