OPERATION

LOADING LOW TRUCKS OR SPREADERS FROM A PILE

For faster loading, minimize angle of turn and length of run between pile and spreader. Back grade occasionally with a loaded bucket to keep working surface free of ruts and holes. Also, hold lift control forward so full weight of bucket is scraping ground.

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.
