CHANGE BLADE LOWER EDGE POSITION IN CUTTING IN
When the machine cuts in with Smooth Start enabled, the blade lower edge height is usually the height of
ground with which the track is in contact.
You can freely change the blade lower edge height when the machine cuts in by performing the following opera-
tion.
1.
Place the joystick (steering, directional and gear shift lever) in FORWARD position, and perform LOWER
trigger operation.
2.
Blade will move down automatically. Before the blade reaches the ground or the design surface, operate
the blade control lever to RAISE direction.
3.
Return the blade control lever to NEUTRAL position while the height of blade bottom is at any height.

(E) Changed cut-in shape
This operation may be effective when you cuts in piled soil from any height.
If you perform this operation while there is no piled soil in front of the machine, the blade stops in air and is held
at that position. In this case, place the joystick (steering, directional and gear shift lever) in NEUTRAL position,
and restart the operation.
