•
Adjust the tilt angle of the implement when the load
is raised so that the load is not directed towards the
operator.
Fig. 61 Exercise caution when working with raised loads.
5.5.3.1. Machine stability
WARNING:
Do NOT work on or close to steep slopes.
The tractor must always be kept a distance from
the edge that is equal to or greater than the
height of the bank or ditch.
•
Operate up and down (not across) slopes. Avoid sudden
starts and stops. Keep the loader as low as possible.
•
Drive the tractor forward up slopes with an empty
bucket. Fill the bucket and then reverse slowly down
the slope.
Fig. 62 Keep at a distance when working near slopes.
WARNING:
Reduce speed before cornering to avoid
overturning the machine.
Avoid sudden turns when driving down slopes.
•
Always leave the transmission in low gear to obtain
engine braking when driving downhill. Do not allow
the tractor to roll freely. Use the same gear for driving
downhill as you did when driving uphill.
•
While driving, lower the loader as far as possible. Keep
in mind that the higher you raise the loader, the higher
the centre of gravity, and thus the risk of the tractor
overturning will increase.
Fig. 63 When cornering, lower the loader and reduce speed.
The bucket is filled most effectively by driving straight
into the stock pile with the bucket level. Raise the loader
slightly while forcing the bucket into the pile to tear
material loose for easier filling. Then roll the bucket back to
contain material.
NOTE:
Remove top layers first when working in deep
material.
Fig. 64 Drive straight in, lift the load and tilt the bucket
backwards.
