Operating the timber grab
WARNING
Risk of serious personal injuries - Unexpected starting.
Ensure that the loader and
attachment are used in a safe manner and as intended. Do not allow children to operate
the machine.
WARNING
Operate the controls of the loader and its boom in a careful and smooth manner -
Risk of falling load.
Make sure that the grab and the loads are not swinging during lifting
operation. Drive slowly and smoothly especially on slippery or uneven terrain.
When handling timber, operate the controls
of the loader and its boom in a careful and
smooth manner.
Aim to grasp timber so that the grab can be
closed completely, and that no material will
be held only by the edges of the grab.
When lifting a too heavy load material can
fall, if held only by the grasping force of the
grab.
The timber grab is usually used with low
engine rpm, and only one auxiliary
hydraulic pump.
Always remember that the load carrying
capacity varies according to operating
conditions. Set the attachment to correct
position according to load to be
transported. Also make sure that the load
does not block the visibility. It may be
possible to transport short, light logs in
upright position. However, longer and
heavier logs should be transported in
nearly horizontal position.
