Grading
After having finished removing/loading the material:
•
Select low drive range
•
Lower the telescopic unit to the ground (120/1)
•
Reverse across the surface to be graded (120/2)
Further practical hints for digging
When planning and carrying out digging work, we recommend that you observe the follow-
ing points:
•
Exits from pits should be outside the digging line and should be as level as possible
•
Dig by removing adjacent strips if possible
•
Make sure you can drive forward when driving out of the digging area with a fully
loaded bucket
•
Whenever possible, drive in reverse when transporting a full bucket down a steep slope
Loading machines
When loading machines, we recommend to take into account the following:
•
Select low drive range
•
If possible, the lorry and the working direction of the machine should form an angle of
45° (figure 121)
•
Only raise the full bucket to the dumping height when you are driving in a straight line
toward the lorry
•
With dusty materials:
If possible dump with the wind behind you to keep the dust away from your eyes, air
filters and fans
Freeing the machine
☞
If your machine gets stuck in the ground:
•
Select low drive range
•
Dump out the bucket until the cutting edge is vertical above the ground
•
Lower the bucket all the way
•
Gradually roll back the bucket
➥
The machine will be pushed backward
•
Reverse slowly
•
Repeat this procedure until the wheels reach firm ground
•
Reverse the machine away
