WARNING:
 When boom is raised, machine stability is reduced
and could cause machine to tip over causing
serious injury or death.
 Do not make quick turns or abrupt braking when
boom is raised.
 Keep boom low for best stability especially on
slopes.
1. Move the lift arm control lever to the "Raise" position
to raise the loaded bucket while approaching the
truck or the hopper.
2. Use the declutch switch in the "ON" position if
working on a level site.
When the left brake pedal (declutch pedal) is step on,
the transmission is placed automatically in neutral
and the lift arm rises faster.
3. Return the lift arm control lever to the "Hold" position
when the bucket reaches the enough height to clear
the truck or hopper sideboards.
If the lift arm is equipped with the kickout device,
the lift arm will automatically stop and the lift arm
control lever will return to the "Hold" position when
the bucket reaches the preset height.
Holding the lift arm control lever in the "Raise"
position will continue to raise the lift arm if required.
4. Position the machine in the center of the truck body
or hopper to dump the load.
5. Push the bucket control lever forward to the "Dump"
position to empty the bucket.
6. Roll back the bucket to clear the truck or hopper
sideboards and lower the lift arm while reversing the
machine.
