Select “Cutting & Carry”. The method of the automatic control of blade is the same as of spreading operation. Turn the machine to the direction of spreading by referring to “SPREADING OPERATION”.
Page 79 OPERATION MACHINE OPERATIONS AND CONTROLS Angling operation is not an automatic operation. Operate the angle switch to angle the blade. NATURAL GROUND SIDE-CUTTING OPERATION Natural ground side-cutting work is the operation to pull down the soil by using one side of blade. Select “Spreading”.
Page 80 MACHINE OPERATIONS AND CONTROLS OPERATION LEVELING WORK Leveling work is the operation to finish the ground when the current ground is similar to the design surface. Select “Cutting & Carry”. Start the blade automatic control, and drive the machine. The blade automatically levels the ground. Start the place higher than the design surface, and carry the cut soil to the lower place to fill there.
