Load diagram
The lifting capacity of the loader is limited by the possibility of tipping around the front axle. The diagram below shows
the tipping loads and max. allowed loads in different loading situations on an even level surface with the loader chassis
in maximum articulation.
The diagrams can be interpreted as follows:
• The diagrams show tipping load and max. load
with the load at different distances from the
front axle of the loader
• Example: If the center of gravity of the load is
750 mm in front of the front axle, max. load is
about 470 kg with a driver weighing 75 kg and
with the 170 kg integrated rear weight mounted
on the loader.
• NOTICE: If the driver leaves the machine,
tipping and max. loads are reduced respectively.
• Tipping load and max. load depend both on
the weight of the driver and the eventual extra
weights mounted on the loader.
• Please note that the diagrams are based on the
machine operating on a level, even and firm
supporting ground. Loads should be significantly
reduced when operating on gradients and/or on
soft ground.
• Read the safety instructions regarding handling of
heavier loads.
Transporting instructions and tie down points
Mount the articulation frame lock, shown on page 28, on
the machine during transports. Lower the boom down and
take off battery disconnect switch. Remember to remove
the frame lock after transport!
Tie down points are located on the rear frame on the
sides, and on the front frame close to the boom. Optionally
available are the rear bumper and / or behind the rear
wheels installed tie down brackets (Art. A418746), in
which the straps and slings can be attached.
If absolutely necessary, the loader can be towed with a rigid
tow bar, by releasing the hydraulic drive circuit. Max. allowed
towing speed is 3 km/h, towing distance max. 200 m.
When the drive circuit is released for towing, the loader
has no brakes. Before releasing the drive circuit make
sure that the parking brake has been engaged, and release
the parking brake only after a rigid tow bar has been
connected.
The hydraulic drive circuit is released by turning the screw
on the right side of the variable displacement drive pump
about 3 rounds counterclockwise. Make sure to put the
drive circuit again in working order by retightening the
screw immediately after towing. Contact Avant service for
instructions if necessary.
The loader can be lifted by mounting appropriate lifting
slings on the ROPS frame. Before lifting, the attachment
and eventual extra weights must be removed. Mount the
frame lock on the machine. Make sure that the lifting slings
cannot move and that the machine doesn’t swing during
lifting. Follow the instructions given in the operator’s
manual of the lifting slings.
Lift a loader with ROPS frame with four straps or slings
approved for lifting and minimum 2 metres in length. Loop
the lifting straps around the four ROPS posts.
Lifting kit A418706 includes all necessary parts to lift
a loader with ROPS frame with detailed instructions
included.
Lower the boom and mount the articulation frame lock as
shown on page 28. Remove heavy attachment and extra
counterweights before lifting. Never lift a loader with
persons riding the machine.
Eyelets on extra side counterweights are for
installing or removing the sideweight only.
Never attempt to lift the loader from the
counterweigths or use them as tie-down
points.
