Bush Hog 2545 manual Lifting the Load

Page 69

OPERATION

Lift and roll back of bucket will increase efficiency

because...

A level bucket throughout the lifting cycle resists bucket lift and increases breakaway effort.

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

LIFTING THE LOAD

When lifting the load, keep the bucket positioned to avoid spillage. Tilt bucket forward while raising to maintain bucket angle.
