Filling the bucket
◼
Control the bucket attitude
throughout the digging cycle to keep
teeth at the proper angle for best
penetration.
It will minimize dragging and scraping
through the ground.
◼
When digging in hard-packed soil,
bucket penetration can be increased
by applying down pressure with the
boom while crowding in and curling
the bucket.
If the crowed action
‘
stalls
,’
it may be
necessary to apply a lift occasionally
during the digging cycle to correct the
bucket depth.
