6 - WORKING OPERATIONS
Filling the backhoe bucket
1. Fill the backhoe bucket by maneuvering the dipper.
Keep the bottom of the backhoe bucket parallel to the
cut. The backhoe bucket teeth and blade must cut the
ground like the blade of a knife. The depth of dig varies
depending on the type of material.
2. Dump the bucket contents onto the spoil pile, rolling
out the bucket as the pile is approached. Avoid con-
stant jarring or hammering-type contact between the
spoil pile and bucket as this will cause wear to the
bucket pins and bushings.

Moving the machine forwards when working
on flat ground
1.
It is possible to use the backhoe attachment to move
the machine forward at the same time as the excava-
tion.
2.
Make sure that the front wheels are straight.
3.
Set the engine speed to
1000 RPM
.
4.
Release the parking brake.
5.
Raise the boom and retract the dipper, then move
the boom so as to place the backhoe bucket teeth
on stable ground.
6.
Raise the stabilizers and the loader bucket about
20 cm
(
7.8 in
) from the ground.
7.
Use the boom and dipper to move the machine.
8.
After moving the machine, lower the stabilizers and
place the loader bucket on the ground, then level the
machine.
9.
Use the parking brake to brake the machine.
NOTICE:
This procedure can only be used on level
ground. Never use it on sloping ground. On sloping
ground it is mandatory to turn the operator’s seat to
the loader attachment position to move the machine
by the normal procedure.
10. The machine can be moved sideways in the same
fashion, except that the bucket must be flat to support
the weight of the machine.
11. Use the swing control to move the machine sideways
to the required position.
