OPERATION When digging and loading on level ground, set the bucket edge face down slightly and drive the machine forward. Always be careful not to load the bucket on one side, causing an unbalanced load. Perform this operation in first gear. 1. Set the bucket edge in a slightly face down position. 2. Drive the machine forward and operate the lift arm control lever forward to cut a thin layer of the surface each time when excavating the soil. 3. Operate the lift arm control lever slightly up and down to reduce the resistance when driving the machine forward. When digging with the bucket, avoid imposing the digging force onto only one side of the bucket. WA450-3MC 2-65
