Overview of control lever functions (standard setting)

tions of the left and right control levers.

injuries and damage to equipment, do not operate any other functions (e.g. moving the swivel frame).

The hydraulic cylinder of the boom is equipped with a
cushioning function, which prevents the excavated
material in the bucket from falling out. When the hy-
draulic system operating temperature is low, the cush-
ioning is delayed for approx. 3 to 5 s. This delay is due
to the viscosity of the hydraulic oil and is not a malfunc-
tion.
