The instability of the machine can result in injury or death. In order to ensure the stability during operation, the following conditions must be observed.The tires must be inflated correctly and the tires must have the correct amount of ballast (if equipped).The machine must be level.The correct load chart must be referenced for the work tool that is installed on the machine. The specified weights and load centers must never be exceeded.The machine must never be moved when the boom is raised above the travelling position.
On the 340B, the boom angle reference scale and the boom extension reference scale are standard equipment.In certain markets, the boom angle reference scale and the boom extension reference scale will be offered as an option for the 220B and the 330B. Your Caterpillar dealer will be able to equip your machine with the boom angle reference scale and the boom extension reference scale.On machines that are not equipped with the boom angle reference scale and the boom extension reference scale, it may be difficult to accurately position a load within the areas that are shown on the load charts.While the machine is active,Caterpillar strongly recommends the use of the boom angle reference scale and the boom extension reference scale when operators refer to load charts. The use of load charts is the only recommended method of reducing the risk that is associated with longitudinal stability. Even if an LSI system is installed, the same level of longitudinal stability will not be achieved as the level of stability that is obtained with the accurate use of load charts. Refer to the "Longitudinal Stability Indicator" section of Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Monitoring System" for more information on the LSI system.

The load charts are located on the dash panel at the right side of the instrument cluster. Ensure that the correct load chart is used. The chart is intended for the type of attachment that is represented by a symbol at the top of the chart. The load charts may be in metric units (meters and kilograms) or conventional units (feet and pounds).When the machine is operated on tires, the weight of the intended load determines the maximum height above ground. The weight of the intended load also determines the maximum distance that is between the load center of gravity and the front wheels.The machine boom has two scales which must be used for reference with the load chart in order to assess the lift operation. The boom extension reference scale gives an indication of the boom length. For the 220B and 330B machines, the letters "B" and "C" correspond to the same letters on the load chart. The letter "A" on the
