Loading
Always select the loading method with the lowest turning and
driving effort in order to work as efficiently as possible.
WARNING
Danger of accidents! Suddenly turning or decelerating with a
raised load may result in the load falling from the bucket and
causing accidents. Turn slowly and decelerate cautiously with a
raised load.
ATTENTION
Driving into a stockpile or a pile of rocks at a high speed may
damage the bucket or the machine. Drive slowly when pushing
the bucket into a stockpile or a pile of rocks.
Avoid shaking the bucket excessively. Work in a way to save the
tyres (see section “Saving the tyres” (3-77)).
Cross-loading
Position the machine at right angles to the stockpile. Back the
machine up in a straight line after filling the bucket. Then wait for
the dump lorry to move between the stockpile and the machine.
Drive forward towards the dump lorry and unload the material.
This is the fastest loading method and reduces cycle times con-
siderably.
V-shape loading
Position the dump lorry so that the machine's direction of
approach to the stockpile is at an angle of about 60° with the
direction of approach to the dump lorry. Load the bucket and
shake it. This distributes the load in the bucket properly and pre-
vents it from falling out to the rear. Back the machine up from the
stockpile and direct the machine towards the dump lorry. Raise
the bucket to its maximum height. Drive forward towards the
dump lorry and unload the material.
The smaller the turning angle of the machine, the more effi-
ciently you are working.
