Operation 3.3. Operation Transporting Make sure that the transport route is in perfect condition and that nobody is in your way. Remove any rocks or large stones which have fallen down out of the operating range (described in chapter "Tyre-appropriate operation" on page 3-58). Hold the bucket in tip-in position. Lower the boom to its transport position. If the boom is in transport position, the two red arrows of the transport position marking on the bucket cylinder will be next to each other. Only move the work equipment against the tilt-in limit stop when in transport position.
Unloading Always select the dumping/unloading type with the smallest turning circle and driving effort in order to work as efficiently as possible. Danger of accidents! If you turn or brake abruptly with the lifted load, the load may fall out of the bucket and cause accidents! Turn slowly with the load lifted and brake cautiously. The bucket and the machine are damaged if you drive into a heap of soil or rocks with high speed! Drive slowly into a heap of soil or rocks. Avoid any excessive shaking of the bucket. Always operate with respect to the condition of the tyres (see section "Tyre- appropriate operation" on page 3-58) .
Loading in diagonal direction Align the machine in rectangular position to the heap. Drive the machine backwards in straight line after you have filled the bucket. Then, let the dump truck drive between heap and machine. Drive up to the dump truck and unload the material. This operation requires not much time and reduces considerably the cycle times.
