600 Series How to work safely HOW TO WORK SAFELY Do not use loader in an atmosphere with explosive dust or gases or where exhaust can contact flammable material, explosion or fire can result. Do not transport the load with the boom lifted. Always carry bucket or attachment as low as possible, and put the load down whenever you leave the machine. When lifting or lowering the load, do not operate the boom control lever abruptly. Turn the lever smoothly and with care.

Controls 600 Series CONTROL OF LOADER BOOM, ATTACHMENTS AND OTHER FUNCTIONS Most of the functions of the loader are controlled at the control panel on the right side of the operator: Boom and bucket movements, auxiliary hydraulics (attachments), engine revs etc. , depending on loader model. Following pictures show the different functions: 5 8 9 7 10 6 5.
Controls 600 Series DASHBOARD On the dashoard on the right side of the drivers seat are mounted gauges, indicators and switches which help the operator to control the loader. Dashboard may be slightly different in different models. Following picture shows the different functions: 18 1. Load sensor indicator 2. Boom floating indicator 3. Headlights indicator 4. Seat heater indicator 5. Glow plug indicator 6. Fuel gauge 7. Work light switch 8. Tachometer 9. Hour meter 10. Oil pressure indicator 11.
Controls 600 Series JOYSTICK 8 FUNCTIONS (option) BOOM SELF LEVELING (option) The loader can be equipped, as 1 an option, with a joystick, where the operation of auxiliary hydraulics and telescopic boom is electric. 2 1. Auxiliary hydraulics push the buttons to engage and disengage auxiliary hydraulics 2. Telescopic boom with the toggle switch the telescopic boom can be operated steplessly (extension- retraction).
Controls 600 Series LOCATION OF BATTERY DISCONNECT SWITCH DRIVE CIRCUIT RELEASE SWITCH (option) With this switch (no. 19, LOCK) the oil flow between the four hydraulic motors can be diverted. In normal operation LOCK OFF - hydraulic oil flows in series from motor to motor. With LOCK ON selected the hydraulic oil flows in parallel between the hydraulic motors on each side, similar to a differential lock in operation. The loader is equipped with a battery disconnect switch.
600 Series Starting the engine STARTING THE ENGINE Start the engine as follows: Turn the battery disconnect switch to ON 6 Move the hand throttle lever 6 to approximately ¼ throttle 13 Turn the ignition key 13 to the right to glowing position until the yellow glow plug indicator 5 lights up, keep the ignition key in this position until the glow plug indicator goes out Turn the ignition key further to the right until the engine starts, then let the key return to ON position THE ENGINE CANNOT S
Drive control 600 Series DRIVE CONTROL AVANT 600 series loaders are equipped with a hydrostatic drive system, there is a variable displacement hydraulic pump in the drive circuit. The oil flow of this drive pump is steplessly adjusted with the two drive pedals. The drive pedals act in a proportional way to control the drive speed and power available at the drive motors. This hydrostatic driving system has different operating characteristics to a mechanical drive.
600 Series Steering of the machine STEERING OF THE MACHINE USING THE AUXILIARY HYDRAULICS Steering of the machine happens with the steering wheel. The steering wheel is hydraulically powered. A practical way of steering is to steer with your left hand on the knob of the steering wheel. This way your right hand is free to operate other functions. Familiarise yourself with the special drive features and space needs of this articulated loader on a flat, even and open place. NEVER TIP OVER THE LOADER.
Coupling the attachments 600 Series COUPLING THE ATTACHMENTS Coupling of the attachments into the attachment coupling plate happens as follows: Stage 1: Lift up the two locking pins on both sides of the attachment coupling plate and turn them backward so that they remain in the up position Make sure that the pins remain in the up position, otherwise you cannot couple the attachment properly! Stage 2: Turn the attachment coupling plate with the tilt movement so that the upper edge of the plate leans

Safety instructions for maintenance 600 Series SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAINTENANCE ALWAYS REMEMBER SAFETY DURING MAINTENANCE DO NOT PERFORM ANY SERVICE OPERATION WHEN THE ENGINE IS RUNNING USE THE SERVICE SUPPORT ON THE BOOM CYLINDER DO NOT GO UNDER UNDSUPPORTED BOOM DO NOT SMOKE DURING SERVICE OPERATIONS BEWARE POSSIBLE HIGH PRESSURE IN HYDRAULIC CIRCUITS MOUNTING OF THE SERVICE SUPPORT Make sure that the boom stays up during maintenance operations by putting the service support on the lift cylinder pi
Maintenance instructions 600 Series 1. CLEANING OF THE LOADER 5.CHANGING OF HYDRAULIC OIL FILTERS Cleanliness of the loader is not only a question of outer appearance. All surfaces, painted and others, will stay in better condition when they are cleaned regularly. A clean machine also lasts longer. A dirty machine will run hotter and will collect dirt into the air cleaner, which is likely to damage the engine.
Maintenance instructions 600 Series 10-13 ADJUST AND CHANGE THE SLIDE PADS ON TELESCOPIC BOOM Auxiliary hydraulics: Pressure is checked by mounting the manometer in the female auxiliary hydraulics quick coupling, with full revs and by turning the aux. hydraulics control lever. Pressure setting should be 205 bar. Drive pressure: In order to check the pressure in the drive circuit one needs to mount a pressure gauge in the pressure line in each and every case, if pressure seems to be clearly wrong.
Maintenance instructions 600 Series 14. FUNCTION AND CALIBRATION OF LOAD SENSOR The loader is equipped with a load sensor system. It gives an audible warning signal and at the same time an indicator lights in the dashboard when tipping load is being approached. When the system gives a warning signal the load that is being lifted is too heavy in relation with the lift capacity of the loader. In this case one has to either put more counterweights on the loader or relieve the load that is being lifted.

Operating instructions, cab 600 Series CAB The windscreen washer tank is located under the doorstep left, and the filler hole is under the carpet. The fuse (25A) for electrical equipment of the cab is located in the fuse box of the loader, under the front cover plate (see page 23). Heater The cab is equipped with a warm water heater which works like a central heating system, using the coolant of the engine. Cab temperature can be adjusted with the thermostat on the front panel left.
Troubleshooting 600 Series TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Cause Remedy Hydraulic attachment does not work when the auxiliary hydraulics control lever is moved. Attachment hoses are not coupled or they are coupled wrongly in the quick couplers. Make sure that the hoses are properly connected into the quick couplers, change the place of the hoses if necessary.
