tt the bucket is pivoted down while the arms are down,
the front of the Mini-Skid will lift off the ground. This
is a standard operation when scraping and leveling.
The standing platform will prevent the Mini-Skid from
overturning backwards.
1. When attacking the heap or pile, always have the
b.ucket level. To achieve this, lower the Mini-Skid
arm and activate bucket tilt cylinder to bring the
bucket level with the ground.
2. Towards the end of the run when the bucket is
nearly full, gently roll the bucket backwards. This
decreases the lifting resistance when the arms
are raised and promotes an efficient tear out.
3. When transporting material in the bucket on hill
sides or rough ground, keep the bucket close to
ground level. This lowers the centre of gravity of
the Mini-Skid and maximizes stability.
4. When scraping, leveling and surface stripping,
lower the bucket to ground level, tilt tt down and
so raise the front wheels slightly off the ground.
Drive forward using the back wheels, the bucket
will bite into the soil as you move forward.
5. The material may then be dumped into a trailer
or utility truck for removal or repositioning on the
stte. Do not step off the operator platform wtth
the load raised.
Manoeuvering is made possible by individual con
trols for the hydraulic motor on each side of the Mini
Skid. A turn may be achieved by varying the amount
and/or direction of power supplied to each side of
the machine. The machine is capable of turning in tts
own length by applying equal forward and reverse
power to opposite sides of the machine.
