Do not tip bucket cutting edge down(fully
extended bucket cylinders) during backfilling/

The tractor/loader should only be
operated with all safety equipment
properly installed.
Do not lower the edge of the bucket too low
for loading. Keep the bottom of the bucket
level with the ground when loading.

Stopping a load after it has gained downward
momentum places undue strain on the unit and
may cause unnecessary damage to the loader or
tractor or even worse, personal injury.
Escaping hydraulic oil under pressure can have
sufficient force to penetrate the skin causing
serious personal injury. If injured by escaping
hydraulic oil seek medical attention immediately.

2. Remember and observe the Safety
Precautions brought to your attention in this
manual, the tractor manual and on the
machinery itself.
3. Use good common sense in the everyday

watching out for and avoiding unsafe

mainframe to drop suddenly, causing damage
to the tractor or loader or injury to personnel.
Always keep cylinders in a retracted position
when the loader is not in use to guard against
rust and contamination which may cause
damage to the cylinder rods or hydraulic system.
For smooth operation in cold weather, let the
tractor warm up. Slowly cycle the lift and bucket
cylinders several times to warm the oil in the
hydraulic system. The loader may operate
erratically until the hydraulic oil has warmed to
operating temperatures.
Before operating the loader, fully raise and lower
the boom two or three times. Then raise the
bucket approximately four(4) feet above the
ground and cycle the bucket cylinders three
times. Lower the bucket to the ground. Check
the tractor hydraulic oil and the correct oil level.
Before leaving the machine, stop the engine,
remove the key, place all controls in neutral, and
either set the parking brake or place tractor in
park as equipped.
ground is not recommended.
Position vehicle to be loaded as near the pile
as possible and in such a direction as to
minimize the amount of tractor turning
required to dump.
Do not lower the loader with the tractor
engine shut off.
Keep the unit clean and perform regular
service. Observe safety messages whenever
cleaning, servicing, or lubricating.
