BACKHOE TELESCOPIC ARM
6.5.2 SAFETY DEVICES
6.5.3 USING THE TELESCOPIC ARM
The telescopic arm is equipped with a safety pin (6) that locks
the sliding arm (2) when it is completely retracted and prevents
any accidental extension of the same.
The safety pin (6), held in its seat by the retainer (7), must be in-
serted and prevent the extension of the arm as shown in Fig. A,
in the following situations:
1 - when it is necessary to travel on roads or in any case when
the machine must cover considerable distances;
2 - when the backhoe is not used.
In operating conditions, the safety pin (6) must be positioned as
shown in Fig. B.

DANGER
•
Before releasing and extending the arm, make sure that the stabilizers rest on firm ground.
•
If possible, work with the backhoe centered on the guides and unload the material as near the machine
as possible.
•
If it is necessary to work with misaligned backhoe or with the backhoe completely shifted on the
guides, operate slowly when swinging the arm to unload the material on the misaligned side; in this
conditions, the machine may lose stability.
•
Do not use the arm retracting cylinder to increase the bucket tearing force when digging.
For the other possible uses, see “3.13 USING THE MACHINE AS AN EXCAVATOR”.
