CHAPTER III OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
3.1 STEERING WHEEL
The articulated loader uses fully hydraulic power steering. The steering wheel is arranged
inside the Cab and connected to the full-hydraulic redirector. Turning clockwise the
steering wheel turns the loader right; turning counterclockwise the steering wheel turns
the loader left.
The fully hydraulic power steering has the
following features:
1. The turning angle of steering wheel is not
equal to that of the loader. Continuously
turning the steering wheel can increase the
turning angle of loader to the expected value.
2. The faster the steering wheel is turned, the
faster the loader is turned.
3. The steering wheel cannot automatically
return to its original position, thus the turning
angle of loader remains unchanged.
Therefore, when the turning of loader is
accomplished, it is necessary to turn the
steering wheel in the opposite direction, to
bring the loader to the straight ahead
direction.
3.2 NEGATIVE-POLE SWITCH OF BATTERY
The battery negative-pole switch is arranged at
the left side inside the rear hood.
The battery negative-pole switch differs from the
starter switch. Disconnecting the negative-pole
switch will turn off the electrical system of loader.
When the starter switch is turned off, some
electrical parts of loader may still be working
because the battery is still connected with
loader’s electrical system.
To turn off the battery negative-pole switch :
To disconnect the power supply to the electrical
system of loader, turn the battery negative-pole
