2.
Shift down immediately in front of the material to be
loaded. When completing the shift down, depress the
accelerator pedal at the same time and thrust the bucket
into the material.
REMARK
To reduce fuel consumption, depress the accelerator pedal the
minimum possible amount. If it is depressed fully, the fuel con-
sumption will increase, but there will be no increase in the
amount loaded.
3.
When the material is in a stockpile, keep the cutting edge
of the bucket horizontal; when loading blasted rock, have
the bucket tilting slightly down.
Be careful not to get blasted rock under the bucket. This
will make the front tires come off the ground and slip.
Try to keep the load in the center of the bucket; if the load
is on one side of the bucket, the load will be unbalanced.
4.
At the same time as thrusting the bucket into the material,
raise the lift arm to prevent the bucket from going in too far.
By raising the lift arm, ample traction will be produced by
the front tires.
REMARK
If the bucket is thrust too much and the lift arm stops rising or
the machine stops moving forward, release the accelerator
pedal a little. Proper operation of the accelerator pedal for
each type of the soil is effective for saving of fuel and preven-
tion of wear of the tires.
5.
Check that there is enough material loaded into the bucket,
then operate the bucket control lever to tilt the bucket and
load the bucket fully.
REMARK
If the bucket edge is moved up and down while pushing in the
bucket and digging, the front tires will come off the ground and
this will cause the tires to slip.
6.
If there is too much material loaded in the bucket, dump
and tilt the bucket quickly to remove the excessive load.
This prevents spillage of the load during hauling.
