CONTROLS
MANOEUVERING
The forward and reverse levers should be thought of as softly operated
clutches for engaging and disengaging the wheels. Use slow even
movements of the control levers for smooth operation of the Loader.
Practice slow starts and gentle stops in an open, safe area.
Manoeuvring is made possible by individual controls for the hydraulic
motors on each side of the machine. A turn may be achieved by varying
the amount and/or direction of power supplied to each side of the
machine. The machine is capable of turning in its own length by applying
equal forward and reverse power to opposite sides of the machine.
While moving forward, a gentle turn to the left for instance, can be made
by slightly increasing the power to the right hand side or by reducing the
power to the left hand side of the machine. This mode of steering allows
the type of turn to be chosen to suit the situation.
CAUTION: Always ensure that the attachment Locking
Pins are fully engaged at all times.
