LOADER OPERATION

„Do not allow bystanders in the area when oper- ating, attaching, removing, assembling, or servic- ing equipment.

The loader should be operated with the tractor engine running at a safe RPM. Excessive speeds are danger- ous, and may cause bucket spillage and unnecessary strain on the tractor and loader.
