PEELING AND SCRAPING
Use a slight bucket angle, travel forward and hold
lift control forward to start the cut. Make a short 5 to
8 foot angle cut and break out cleanly.
With bucket level, start a cut at notch approximately
2 inches deep. Hold depth by feathering bucket
control to adjust cutting lip up or down. When front
tires enter the notch, adjust lift cylinder to maintain
proper depth.
Make additional passes until desired depth is
reached. During each pass, use only bucket control
while working depth. This will allow you to
concentrate on controlling bucket angle to maintain
a precise cut.
