Operate Within Machine Limits
IMPORTANT: Prevent boom, arm, and bucket cylinder
damage. Operating machine with any cylinder at
end of stroke (1) may apply excessive load which
may damage the cylinders. Avoid operating
machine with any cylinder at end of stroke.
When an excessive load is applied to the boom, arm, or
bucket, hydraulic oil is relieved in those circuits. Relieving
oil reduces hydraulic circuit pressure and load on the
components to protect the machine from damage. If the
cylinders are used at the end of stroke (1), the force is
applied to the cylinders and machine components are no
longer protected by the relief valve. Do not operate the
machine with any cylinder at the end of stroke.
