OPERATION

MISCELLANEOUS

When finishing straight walls or bell holes in sandy soil, use a platform under the rear tires and stabilizers. The platform distributes the load over a larger area and lessens the possibility of a cave-in. The platform also tends to keep the unit from creeping rearward if hard digging is encountered.

BACKFILLING

Backfill by lifting the bucket over the spoil pile and then crowding in. Pull both the crowd and lift levers for smooth, even backfilling.

IMPORTANT: Do not backfill by using the swing circuit and dragging the bucket sideways. Doing so can cause damage to the dipstick, boom, swing cylinders, or mainframe.

SEAT ADJUSTMENT

To adjust seat up or down, remove clevis pin (1) and hair pin (2) which secures seat bracket (3) to seat post (4) and raise or lower the seat. Adjust seat forward or rearward by repositioning seat on mounting plate (5).

FINISHING STRAIGHT WALLS

Finish the far wall by crowding out while forcing the bucket down with the bottom. Actuate the bucket (curl out) to keep the bottom of the bucket vertical.

To finish the rear wall, lift up and crowd in. Keep the edges of the bucket horizontal.

OPTIONAL SWIVEL SEAT MECHANISM

Refer to instruction sheet provided with swivel mechanism for installation and operation instructions.
