Drive Control (Hand Controls)

Controls auxiliary hydraulics flow direction and amount. See “Auxiliary Hydraulic System” on page78.

Works with Auxiliary Hydraulics Rocker Switch to latch/ unlatch auxiliary hydraulics continuous flow. See “Auxiliary Hydraulic System” on page78.

Control lift arm raise and lower. See “Lift/Tilt Control (Foot Controls)” on page67.

Controls attachment tilt. See “Lift/Tilt Control (Foot Controls)” on page67.

Forward, reverse, travel speed and turning maneuvers are controlled using the hand controls (Figure 31):

A.To go forward, push both hand controls forward.

B.To go in reverse, pull both hand controls rearward.

C.To turn right, push the left hand control farther forward than the right.

D.To turn left, push the right hand control farther forward than the left.

E.To spin turn clockwise, push the left hand control forward and pull the right hand control rearward.

F.To spin turn counter-clockwise, push the right hand control forward and pull the left hand control rearward.

Be sure the controls are in neutral before starting the engine. Operate the controls gradually and smoothly. Excessive speed and quick control movements without regard for conditions and circumstances are hazardous and could cause an accident.

Moving the hand controls farther from neutral increases the speed steadily to the maximum travel speed. Tractive effort decreases as wheel speed increases. For maximum tractive effort, move the hand controls only slightly away from the neutral positions. The engine will stall if the hand controls are moved too far forward when loading the bucket.

Lift/Tilt Control (Foot Controls)

Lift arm raise and lower, and attachment tilt are controlled using the foot controls (Figure 32):

A.To lower the lift arm, push the front of the left foot pedal down.

B.To raise the lift arm, push the back of the left foot pedal down.

C.To tilt the attachment forward and down, push the front of the right foot pedal down.

D.To tilt the attachment up and back, push the back of the right foot pedal down.

Note: The speed of the lift/tilt motion is directly proportional to the amount of pedal movement and engine speed.

Two-Speed Drive

The two-speed drive has two travel speed ranges:

•Low-speed range: 0 - 10,5 km/h (6.5 mph).

•High-speed range: 0 - 16,1 km/h (10.0 mph).

Important: If engine rpm is below 1250 rpm when two-speed drive is activated, the low idle engine speed is automatically increased.

Note: Speed varies slightly with track style.

Reduce speed before shifting from two-speed to single-speed drive. Down-shifting from high speed to low speed drive while traveling at high speed may cause the machine to tip and can cause injury, loss of control and damage to the machine.

Press button (C, Figure 33) to switch between high and low two-speed drive ranges. When the high-speed two-speed drive range is activated, the high-speed indicator () on the control pad is lit.
