OPERATING MACHINE Loader and Dump Track Combination Method Be aware of the following points: d •WARNING: Always maintain a flat work site surface. Avoid rapid swing and/or sudden braking while raising the lift arm with the bucket loaded to prevent the machine from tipping over. • Do not penetrate the bucket into a loading face at fast travel speeds, possibly resulting in personal accident. A loader carries out loading, and carrying and dumping are carried out by a dump truck. Depending on the work site conditions encountered and matching with available trucks, select the most efficient method.
V-Shape Loading 1. Park a dump truck in a spot located at approx. 60 degrees angle toward the face of loading by the wheel loader. After loading material, travel the wheel loader in reverse and turn its direction so that the wheel loader faces the parked dump truck at a right angle. Then, travel forward to carry material onto the dump truck. 2. Position the wheel loader so that the material can be loaded around the center of the dump body. In case the dump body is longer than twice the bucket width, load from the front to rear position of the dump body in order. 3. When dumping sticky material such as clay, move the bucket lever back and forth to hit the bucket to the stoppers. Take a steering angle as small as possible to operate the machine efficiently. 4. Before raising the lift arm to the maximum height with the bucket full, vibrate the bucket on the ground to stabilize the material in the bucket to prevent the material from spilling off the backside of the bucket.
