Avoid injury!
Follow ALL of the precautions listed below.
Failure to comply could result in minor or moderate injury.
C0125A
Handling of hanging loads to complete the working cycle is allowed, provided that the machine is equipped with the
relevant option, provided on demand. Suspended loads must be handled in strict compliance with the relevant national
regulations and with the safety instructions given in this manual.
The anti-drop valves located on the cylinders of the loader and backhoe attachment, the lifting load table located in
the cab and the hook on the link of the bucket linkage are safety devices. The lack of one of them or a damaged item
make the machine unfit for use.
Before handling suspended loads, check that the valves do not show clear evidence of damage or anomalous noise.
In the event anomalous conditions are found, contact the Dealer; in the meantime, do not use the machine for handling
suspended loads. Check that the lifting device (hooks, chains, etc.) is in perfect conditions, without any sign of
excessive wear. The device can be used exclusively to lift parts not anchored to the ground. Never use it for towing,
uprooting or tearing operations. In any case, comply with the current regulations in force as regards checking these
devices (not supplied with the machine).
In order to prevent injuries, do not exceed the nominal load capacity of the machine. If the machine is not on a level
surface, the load capacity is reduced. In any case, always proceed with extreme care.
Suspended loads can rotate and swing in all directions; therefore, there is the dangerous possibility that they hit
persons or the cab of the machine. In order to limit this danger, it is absolutely required that all bystanders are moved
away from the operating range of the machine and that the load is handled slowly.
In the event the load rotates or swings during handling, slow down until the machine stops and lower the load slowly
to the ground; then, correct the way it is slung.
Lifting loads with the loader attachment
For load lifting, it is mandatory that the machine is
equipped with safety valves and with a load lifting chart
corresponding to the type of machine and attachments
used.
NOTICE:
No safety valve system different from the one
provided can be used to lift loads. Consult your Dealer.
Loader bucket - with lifting ring
The lifting ring is the only point to which loads may be
attached on the loader bucket. The bucket must also be
in dumping position.
Loader bucket - without lifting ring
If the loader bucket is not supplied with a factory fitted
lifting ring, consult your Dealer.
