Lift/Tilt Controls
Moving the lift arm and tilting the attachment are accomplished by movement of
the foot pedals. The left pedal raises and lowers the lift arm; the right pedal tilts
the attachment. To
raise the lift arm, push down on the back of the left pedal with
your left heel; to lower the lift arm, push down on the front of the left pedal with
the toes of your left foot. To tilt the attachment forward and down , push down
on the front of the right pedal with the toes of your right foot; to tilt the attach-
ment up and back , push down on the back of the right pedal with your right
heel.
Note: The speed of the lift/tilt motion is directly proportional to the amount of
pedal movement and engine speed.
To place the lift arm into the “float” position, push and hold the left button on the
right-hand control. This mode allows the lowered lift arm to follow the ground
contour while traveling over changing ground conditions. An indicator lamp in
the indicator and warning lamp display will blink when float is activated.
Never push the float control button with the
attachment raised, because this will cause the
lift arm to lower very rapidly.
Releasing the float button will cancel the float mode if the button was pressed
less than five seconds. If the float mode button is pressed longer than five sec-
onds, the float feature will remain on and the float indicator lamp will remain lit
until the button is pressed again or the machine is turned off.
