. OPERATION EXPLANATION OF COMPONENTS POWER MODE SELECTOR SWITCH 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 This switch (2) can be used to switc the purpose of the operation. Whe n the POWER mode is selected (POWER mode) on the machine mo REMARK tive fuel consumption, normally set to the NORMAL mode.

S et to the POWER mode when ca rrying out heavy-duty digging operations of rock or oper ations where the s peed is required, or when traveling at h igh speed on flat ground or on slopes.

TRANSMISSION SHIFT MODE SELEC This switch (3) is used to change th SHIFT/MANUAL selector switch has At e ach of the L, M, and H positions, shift and the auto shift pilot lamp on t Normally, set to auto shift. If it i s set to the L position when the w ork is mainly operations on flat ground, it is possible to s hift up when the en gine spe ed is low. This is effective in red ucing fuel consumption.
