4 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTICE:
For all machines (mechanical or EH), if the operator is out of the seat, the seat belt is not fasten or un-
plugged, the restraint bar (if equipped) is unplugged, and the OPERATE button is pressed, error message OPRPR
will appear on the display. Check the seat belt and the restraint bar (if equipped) plug connections. Sit in the oper-
ator’s seat, engage the seat belt, lower the restraint bar (if equipped), and press the OPERATE button. If OPRPR
continues to appear contact your Dealer.
1. Set the engine speed at the desired throttle setting. Control the machine ground speed with the control levers.
When the job site conditions permit, the throttle should be set at full throttle.
NOTE:
The minimum throttle setting should be
1400 to 1500 RPM
for acceptable control.
2. If you are a new operator, always operate the machine in an open area at a reduced machine ground speed until
you get a feel for the controls. Move the control levers slowly and smoothly to avoid machine bouncing. If the
machine starts to bounce, bring the control levers back to the neutral position.
3. Keep all machine and loader arm movements smooth, and the work cycle as short as possible. Complete more
work in a shorter time frame with a smooth, short work cycle.
4. Keep the work site as smooth and level as possible.
NOTE:
Use the correct tires for the job site conditions.
Contact your dealer for tire options.
