7. Operating Instructions
The operator is responsible to be familiar with and follow all
operating and safety procedures.
• Use the excavator controls to operate the LXG520R
grapple.
• Learn the basic operation of the grapple to prevent the
chance of creating a dangerous situation with the load.
• When using the grapple, position the excavator on firm,
level ground.

that is required to complete the work safely.

protective eye wear, protective footwear,
respirator, and gloves.

possible without direct contact (arcing).

• Create a Work Zone for the machine and the load. Mark
it with safety cones or barricades to warn bystanders to
stay outside of it.
• Know where coworkers are at all times and be alert for
unexpected workers or bystanders entering your Work
Zone. Make eye contact with anyone entering the zone.
• Do not allow anyone near the grapple while in operation.
Always keep coworkers and bystanders in full view at all
times while loading.
• Protective cab shields must be provided on a log loader
unless the absence of shields does not pose a hazard to
the operator.
• Always wear the seat belt while operating the grapple.
Remain seated in the operator's seat during operation.
• Never lift, move or swing a load over personnel, the cab
of other machines, or vehicles in the area.
• Never exit the machine leaving a load suspended. When
leaving the machine for any reason, always lower the
grapple to the ground.
• Close the grapple completely around logs. Avoid pinching
a log with the grapple.
• Avoid operating where there is a possibility of the
grappled load striking other obstacles.
• Use more than one of the excavator controls at a time so
movements are smooth.
• If piling logs, piles should be in a level, clear area to
prevent logs from rolling. Make even piles so logs are
parallel and ends match.
• Clean debris from the loading area. Debris may interfere
with grappling.
• Place the grapple on the ground and stop the engine
before exiting the excavator.
