REMARK
When digging is performed by rearward pitch, a sudden stick-
ing in the ground will not occur and smooth digging can be per-
formed.
HARD SOIL CONDITION (HARD CLAY SOIL, SHALE STRATUM, ETC.)
When digging is performed by forward pitch, the machine body
is raised and the end bit sticks much better to the ground when
the blade is tilted.
PUSHING UP OPERATION
