GENERAL OPERATING TIPS
Carry loaded bucket low to the ground for a better view
and to improve machine stability.
Keep the bottom of the bucket parallel to the ground when
dozing. DO NOT doze with the bucket in dump position.
Use bucket teeth when digging in hard material.
When bucket digs in, decreasing traction, roll bucket back
slightly.
In float position, the bucket will follow the contour of the
ground. Use float position to back drag.
Clean and level the work area while waiting for truck.
If possible, keep wind at your back while dumping load,
for improved viewing and to keep dust away from engine.
