OPERATING THE MACHINE

LOADING SHOVEL OPERATION
1. To dig, position the bucket bottom parallel to and
touching the ground and extend the arm while crowd-
ing the bucket.
2. Digging force increases as the arm is retracted. Try to
dig with the arm retracted where strong digging forces
are required.
PROHIBITED OPERATION
1. Never dig with the bucket retracted too closely to the
undercarriage, as the machine components will be
subjected to excessive force. If closely retracted dig-
ging is unavoidable, keep a distance of at least 3 m
between the rear end of the bucket and the front end
of the undercarriage.
2. Never dig with the bucket fully retracted and the
bucket teeth stuck in the ground as the front attach-
ment will be subjected to excessive force.
3. Do not use the rear of the bucket for grading opera-
tion, as this will damage it.
4. Do not push rocks or other heavy materials with the
side of the bucket (using the swing movement of the
upperstructure), as this may damage the front at-
tachment. If such pushing is unavoidable, be sure to
do it slowly and carefully.
