SAFETY PRECAUTIONS - - - - - - - - , Following are precautions suggested to help prevent accidents.

A careful operator operates best. Most accidents can be avoided by observing certain precautions. Read all precautions that follow before operating your tractor and loader to help prevent accidents. Equipment should be operated only by those who are responsible and instructed to do so.

GENERAL 1. Read your Operator's Manuals carefully before using tractor or loader. Lack of operating knowledge can lead to accidents.

2. Replace damaged or illegible safety decals. See page 45 for required decals.

3. Operate tractor and loader only from operator's seat.

TRACTOR 1. Use an approved roll bar and seat belt for safe operation.

Overtuming a tractor without a rollbar can result in death or injury. If your tractor is not equipped with a rollbar and seat belt, see your Tractor Dealer.

2. Equip your tractor with FOPS (Falling Object Protective Structure) before installing or operating loader.

5. Allow for loader length when making tums.

6. Stop loader arms gradually when lowering or lifting.

7. Use caution when handling loose or shiftable loads.

8. Carry bucket or attachment at a low position during transport for better visibility.

9. When parking or servicing, lower bucket to ground, stop engine and set park brakes before leaving tractor seat.

10. Operate loader controls only when properly seated at controls.

11. USing front end loaders without special attachments for handling large heavy objects such as large round or rectangular bales, logs and oil drums is NOT RECOMMENDED. 12. Handling large heavy objects can be extremely dangerous due to: • Danger of rolling tractor over.

• Danger of upending tractor.

• Danger of objects rolling or sliding down loader arms onto operator.

6. Move and turn tractor at low speeds.

13. If you must perform this sort of work (see 12 above), protect yourself by: • Use proper attachments only.

• Never lift load higher than necessary to clear ground when moving.

• Ballast tractor rear to compensate for load.

• Never Uft large objects with equipment that does not have an anti-rollback device.

• Move slowly and carefully, avoiding rough terrain.

LOADER

MAINTENANCE

1. Improper use of a loader can cause serious injury or death.

1. When servicing or replacing pins in cylinder ends, buckets, etc., always use a drift and hammer of non-sparking material. Failure to do so could result in injury from flying metal fragments.

3. Always use seat belt when rollbar is installed. Do not use seat belt if rollbar is removed from tractor.

4. Add recommended wheel ballast and/or rear weight as recommended in owner's manual to provide good stability.

5. Move rear wheels to widest settings recommended by Ford New Holland Americas to increase stability.

2. Do not lift or carry anybody on loader, in bucket or on attachment.

3. Never allow anyone to get under loader bucket or reach through lift arms when bucket is raised.

4. Do not walk or work under a raised loader or bucket or attachment unless it is securely blocked or held in position.

5. Avoid overhead wires and obstacles when loader is raised.

Contacting electric lines can cause electrocution.

6. Make sure all parked loaders are on a hard, level surface.

Engage all safety devices.

OPERATING LOADER 1. As owner of this loader, it is your responsibility to be certain anyone operating this loader has read this manual first to be aware of safe operation of your tractor and loader.

2. Exercise caution when operating any loader with a raised loaded bucket or fork.

3. Avoid loose fill, rocks and holes. They can be dangerous for Icader operation or movement.

4. Use care when operating on steep grades to maintain proper stability. Always carry bucket or attachment as low as possible.

2. Do not modify or alter or permit anyone else to modify or alter loader or any of its components or any loader function without first consulting a Ford New Holland Dealer. If you have any questions regarding loader modifications contact Ford New Holland Americas.

3. Always wear safety goggles when servicing or repairing tractor or loader.

4. Escaping hydraulic/diesel fluid under pressure can penetrate skin causing serious personal injury.

• DO NOT use your hand to check for leaks. Use a piece of cardboard or paper to search for leaks.

• Stop engine and relieve pressure before connecting or disconnecting hydraulic or diesel lines.

• Tighten all connections before starting engine or pressurizing lines.

• If any fluid is injected into skin, obtain medical attention immediately or gangrene may result.

5. Do not tamper with relief valve setting. Valve relief is factory-set. Changing relief setting can cause overloading of your tractor or loader and serious operator injury may result.

ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!

--------OPERATION - - - - - - - PREPARING TRACTOR PRIOR TO OPERATION

A

WARNING: Read all operator's manuals before in"specting, servicing or operating loader and tractor.

INSPECTION Thoroughly inspect your fully assembled tractor and loader prior to operation.

1. Check a" hardware to be sure that it has been properly installed and tightened. Retighten a" hardware after 10 hours of initial operation.

2. Check tire pressure. Refer to tractor operator's manual for recommended pressures.

3. Review tractor lubrication schedule and consult MAINTENANCE section of this manual to be certain a" pivot points have been properly lubricated.

4. Use instructions listed in MAINTENANCE section of this manual to check a" hose and tubing connections to insure no leaks are present.

5. Be sure FOPS (Falling Object Protective Structure) is installed.

A

INSTALL COUNTERBALANCE

A

WARNING: Before operating tractor and loader, add sufficient counterweight so a minimum of 25% of total weight of tractor, loader and rated load is on rear wheels when bucket contains rated load and is in maximum forward position.

Sufficient weight can be added to tractor by filling rear wheels with liquid ballast, installing wheel weights or 3-point hitch counterweight. If 3-point hitch counterweights are used, they should be carried as low as possible at a" times to maximize stability.

Effective counterbalance weight of mounted rear equipment is determined by multiplying actual weight of equipment by

1.50.

EXAMPLE: Equipment weighing 800 pounds, attached to rear of tractor, multiplied by 1.50, equals 1200 pounds of effective counterbalance weight.

After adding recommended counterweight, weigh tractor at rear axle to be sure counterbalance is adequate. With bucket empty and in carry position, minimum tractor rear axle weight should be 8,500 Ibs. for 7840,8240 & 8340 FWA tractors and 13,000 Ibs for 8730, 8830, TW25 & TW35 2WD & FWA tractors.

WARNING: Front axle tread setting must not exceed

. .76- (1.93 m) on 7840, 8240 and 8340 FWA tractors.

OPERATING LOADER

Loaders with 1-lever control, ease lever back and toward you to lift and curl bucket.

This loader should be operated with tractor engine running at 1700-2200 rpm. Excessive speeds are dangerous, and may cause bucket spillage and unnecessary strain on bucket and loader.

When operating in temperatures below 3O'F., run tractor engine below 1200 rpm until oil temperature exceeds 30'F. Text and illustrations which follow offer suggested loader and tractor operating techniques.

--------OPERATION

... a level bucket throughout lift cycle resists bucket lift and increases breakaway effort.

Use extreme care when operating loader on a slope, keep bucket as low as possible. This keeps center of gravity for loader, bucket and tractor low and will provide maximum tractor stability.

WARNING: Operating a loader on a hillside is da" gerous. Extreme care is recommended to avoid overtum.

NOTE: Do not be concerned if bucket is not completely filled during each pass. Maximum productivity is determined by how much material is loaded in a given period of time. Time is lost if two or more attempts are made to fill bucket on each pass.

LIFTING LOAD DOTHIS

When lifting load, keep bucket positioned to avoid spillage.

.

When transporting a load, keep bucket as low as possible to avoid tipping, in case a wheel drops in a rut .

LOADING FROM A BANK Choose a forward gear that provides sufficient ground speed for loading.

DUMP

ROLLBACK

Exercise caution when undercutting high banks. Dirt slides can be dangerous. Load from as low as possible for maximum efficiency. Loader lift and break-away capacity diminish as loading height is increased.

FLOAT POSITION

•

OPERATING WITH FLOAT CONTROL During hard surface operation, keep bucket level and put lift control in float position to permit bucket to float on working surface. If hydraulic down pressure is exerted on bucket it will wear faster than normal.

Sidecutting is a good technique for cutting down a big pile.

Using loader float position will also prevent mixing of surface material with stockpile material, and will reduce surface gouging when removing snow or other material.

If pile sides are too high and liable to cause cave-in, use loader to break down sides until a slot can be cut over top of pile.

SURFACE MATERIAL

Another method for large dirt piles is to build a ramp approach to pile.

DOTHISI

......................-

Do not roll bucket over and attempt to backgrade. This type of use can cause severe overloading of bucket cylinders when fully extended, possibly causing bucket cylinder rods to become bent.

It's important to keep a level bucket when approaching a bank or pile. This will help prevent gouging work area.

•

BACKFILLING Approach pile with a flat bucket.

DO THIS!

BACKGRADING Backgrade occasionally with a loaded bucket to keep working surface free of ruts and holes. Also, hold lift control forward so full bucket weight is scraping ground. Use bucket heel.

Poor methods actually move no more dirt and make it more difficult to hold a level grade.

--------OPERATION - - - - - - - -

NOT THIS!

Do not use bucket in dumped position for bulldozing. This method, shown above, will impose severe shock loadings on dump linkage, bucket cylinder, and tractor.

Pile dirt on high side for easier backfilling on a slope.

•

HANDLING LARGE HEAVY OBJECTS

A WARNING 1. Using front loaders for handling large heavy objects such as large round or rectangular bales, logs and oil drums is not recommended.

Leave dirt in bucket because dumping on each pass wastes time.

2. Handling large heavy objects can be extremely dangerous due to: • Danger of rolling tractor over.

• Danger of upending tractor.

• Danger of objects rolling or sliding down loader arms onto operator.

3. If you must perform any work listed above, protect yourself by: • Use proper attachments only.

• Never lift load higher than necessary to clear ground when moving.

• Ballast tractor rear to compensate for load.

• Never lift large objects with equipment that does not have an anti-rollback device.

• Move slowly and carefully, avoiding rough terrain.

Operate at right angles to ditch. Take as big a bite as tractor can handle without lugging down.
