LOADER TECHNIQUES
WARNING! Never backdrag, push any objects (trees, rocks, etc) with the bucket
in the utmost dump position as due to unfavorable distribution of forces a
serious damage to loading mechanism can result. It is particularly unfavorable
when operating with boom raised.
WARNING! Do not operate close to dangerous overhangs. Unskillful operation
of the loader may result in occurrence of overhangs that may slide on the
loader. Prevent occurrence of the overhangs or remove them using other
methods e.g. firing, digging from the top, etc.
Level the ground when driving backward. Lift the bucket and dump it slightly, Fig. 4.38 then use float
position of the boom. Then weight of the loading mechanism presses on the ground and scrapes
and spreads uniformly. The ground may be leveled as described above but with fixed boom
position. Selection of the method depends upon the local conditions and the operator.
Fig. 4.38. Backdragging and Leveling
Small or medium trees may be removed with bucket raised at operator’s eyes level and positioned
horizontally pushing the tree with the middle part of the bucket. Do not hit the tree with bucket.
Topple the tree, back the loader and lower the bucket to the ground and push the tree from the site.
Fig. 4.39. Position of the Bucket When Removing a Small Tree
A - Wrong
B - Right
WARNING! Using the loader to carry large objects which do not fit the bucket is
NOT RECOMMENDED. Handling large objects can be extremely dangerous
because objects may roll or slide down the lift arms on to the operator. NEVER
lift large objects higher than the operator unless the machine has a device
which prevents the objects from falling back onto the operator.
