6.2.1
Handling bales
Grab a bale that is laying on its side by
driving the bale fork under a bale.
Adjust the forks to widest position
where bale will stay on the fork.
CAUTION
Always transport heavy loads as
low and close to the ground as
possible. Keep the telescopic
boom retracted when
transporting a bale. Lift only at
unloading location while not
driving with the loader.
6.2.2
Material handling
Use maximum load indicated in the diagram of the operator’s manual of the loader as a guideline. Remember
that the actual load carrying capacity varies according to operating conditions, especially unevenness of
operating area has a great effect. Be especially careful when the load sensor indicator is activated. Also,
make sure that the ground surface is firm and follow recommended tire pressures.
WARNING
Risk of tipping over - Avoid overload and keep heavy load close to the loader. Keep
loads close to the ground whenever driving, especially during turns and uneven
terrain.
Pay attention that a heavy load or long distance between the loader and the
centre of gravity of the load will affect the balance and handling of the loader. The use of
additional counterweights is recommended especially when operating smaller loader
models. With heavy loads, the telescopic boom must be kept retracted while moving with
the loader. Always wear seat belt.
WARNING
Risk of crushing - Abrupt movements can cause loss of stability.
Movements, such
as stopping, turning, or lowering the boom abruptly, can cause loss of stability. Always
drive slowly and operate the controls of the loader very carefully when handling heavy
loads.
