3. Telescopic boom control lever
The telescopic boom makes many tasks easier, also
those that do not involve lifting. You can, for
example, push material further with a bucket, reach
into difficult areas, and improve visibility to the work
area with some attachments.
The telescopic boom can be
extended by 600 mm. It increases
the maximum lifting height by 485
mm.
Turn the control lever of the
telescopic boom to the right to
extend the boom, and turn to the
left to retract it.
WARNING
Risk of tipping over - Extended
boom can cause the loader to tip
over. Use telescopic boom with
caution.
The stability of the loader
depends on the distance of the
load from the front of the loader.
When you extend the boom, you
increase the effect of the weight
and reduce safe handling capacity.
See pages 33 and 60 for further
instructions about tipping load and
safe material handling.

4. Joystick - 6 function (optional
extra)
If the loader is equipped with the optional 6 function
joystick, the auxiliary hydraulics can be controlled
with electric buttons on the joystick:
Push and hold either button to
operate hydraulic feature of the
attachment.
Release buttons to stop.
Either these buttons or the
control lever can be used,
depending on the attachment
and kind of work.
The operation of the buttons
depends on the attachment,
see the Operator's Manual of
the attachment.
Make sure the manual control
lever is not locked when
operating electric joystick.
If the joystick has an additional switch on the
backside of it, it is the control switch for the anti slip
valve. See page 56.
CAUTION
Avoid abrupt movements of an
attachment
-
Use electric
buttons with caution.
When you
use certain attachments with the
electric joystick buttons, the
attachments can move abruptly.
This can cause falling of material
from the attachment, loss of
stability, or damage to attachment.
Use the manual control lever for
work or attachments requiring
smooth movements.
