3.12 LIFTING & PLACING A LOAD
LIFTING & POSITIONING LOADS.
Failure to plan a
lift properly could result in death or serious injury.
The automatic boom tilt brake will not prevent boom
from tilting in response to an external load. Load must
be centered under bucket adapter with boom level
from side to side.
Precautions
• Use the lift capacity chart to calculate maximum load. Keep in mind, the
attachment weight and rigging must be added to the load, then compared to the
value on the lift capacity chart.
• If it becomes necessary to shut the engine off while positioning a load, place load
on the ground prior to shutting off engine.
• Be thoroughly familiar with excavator hand signals shown at the end of the
manual.
• Operate machine at full throttle and do not shut off engine with suspended load.
• Do not travel with suspended load positioned over the side of the machine.
• Suspend loads only as shown above. Passing load line over open bucket can
cause uncontrolled movement of load.
• To lift loads, level boom from side to side and close adapter fully against stops.
Pass through adapter as shown and be certain chain is locked on itself.
