OPERATION OF THE LIFT ARM

1. Control lever
The control lever controls all the bucket and lift arm
operations.
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or death:
• Do not exceed the rated operating capacity of
the unit. If loads exceed the rated operating
capacity, the unit can experience a hydraulic
imbalance when half or medium “lift-arms-
raise” command and “bucket-roll-back” or
“auxiliary-hydraulic-control”
command are
input together, which can result in the lift arms
lowering slowly. If you begin to experience the
hydraulic imbalance, either place the lift arms
control in “NEUTRAL” or input full “RAISE”
control, and lift arms lowering will cease.
