. OPERATION EXPLANATION OF COMPONENTS the engine output to match output mode pilot lamp NORMAL position: Normal mode (low engine output), operations where emphasis is on fuel consumption, such as operations on flat ground where high engine output is not needed. POWER position: Power mode (high engine output), operations where emphasis is on production. shift point when the AUTO MANUAL position: System is set to manual shift and speed range is a position selected by gearshift lever L position: This is suitable for operations on flat ground and for normal travel operations M position: This is suitable for load and carry operations and traveling up slopes of 3 ° to 6 ° H position:

This is suitable for load and carry operations and traveling up slopes of more than 6 ° 3 - 38 MANUAL position Whe n starting in cold weather, set to t his position if it is desired to extend the preheating tim e beyond the auto matic preheating time. Whe n the switch is released, it will ret urn to the OFF position, so turn it immediately to the ST ART position an d start the engine. POWER MODE SELECTOR SWITCH This switch (2) can be used to switch the purpose of the operation. Whe n the POWER mode is selected (POWER mode) on the machine mo REMARK ive fuel consumption, normally set to the NORMAL mode.

t lower than in the POWER mode, but except for hard operations such as T o carry out operations with effect ive fuel consumption, normally set to the NORMAL m T h F he maximum engine speed is se eavy-duty digging of rock, it c t lower than in the POWER mode, but except for ha an display ample power and can also display go od fuel consumption. urthermore, by pressing the acce lerator pedal lightly, it is possible to reduce the fuel c onsumption. S et to the POWER mode when car rying out heavy-duty digging operations of rock or oper ations where the s peed is required, or when traveling at hi gh speed on flat ground or on slopes.

TRANSMISSION SHIFT MODE SELEC This switch (3) is used to change the SHIFT/MANUAL selector switch has At e ach of the L, M, and H positions, shift and the auto shift pilot lamp on th Normally, set to auto shift. If it i s set to the L position when the wo rk is mainly operations on flat ground, it is possible to s hift up when the e ngine spee d is low. This is effective in redu cing fuel consumption.
