Using the Valtra front loader
Valtra front loader is optional equipment.
WARNING: Check that all screws are tightened before using the front
loader.
WARNING: Always look at the implement. Objects can fall or roll
backwards onto the driver when the loader is raised. Only lift loads
which can be contained in, and are intended for, the specific
implement.
WARNING: The risk of overturn increases as the loader is raised. Be
extra careful on slopes when operating the loader. Always carry the
loader as low as practical for the conditions.
WARNING: The programmable features of the joystick or other
controls MUST NOT be used to operate a loader. In order to prevent
involuntary loader motion, the loader joystick controller must be of a
self-neutralising type. When the operator releases his grip on the
joystick, the joystick must return to a non-operational neutral position -
except for float detent position in the loader lower direction.
NOTE: Install the Valtra front loader according to the instructions in the Valtra
loader Operator's Manual. If you want to install any other front loader, contact
your local technical support.
IMPORTANT: It is not recommended to attach the front loader to the valves with
the timer function. If you do so, be sure that the timer is disabled when attaching.
IMPORTANT: When using the front loader, the front linkage lifting links must be
folded to the transport position.
