OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
During all operations of the SwapLoader, the speed of the engine should be maintained at 1,000
to 1,200 RPM, assuming the ratio of the Power Take Off is about 100%.
LOADING A CONTAINER
1. Engage the P.T.O. (Refer to P.T.O. manual for operation).
2.
Retract the jib (right control lever backward). Then, tilt the arm backward (left control
lever backward.) See Fig. A.
3.
Make sure the work area in front of the container is clear of people and obstacles. Move
the truck backwards until the hook engages the curved lifting bar of the container.
NEVER EXTEND THE JIB to reach the proper catching height, rather tilt the arm.
