Move the joystick control lever to the RAISE position as forward movement slows. Return the lever to the HOLD position for additional tilt back power.

To fill the bucket, work the joystick control lever back and forth from the TILT BACK position to the HOLD position. Continue to use RAISE as required to reduce wheel slip.

Raise the bucket high enough to clear the material being loaded. Tilt the bucket back until the bucket contacts the stops. Always carry the load with the bucket in the fully tilted back position to avoid material spillage and minimize loader linkage wear.
Move the transmission direction and speed control to the REVERSE position. Carry the loaded bucket approximately 400 mm (15 inch) above the ground level.

To control dumping, move the joystick control lever to the DUMP position. Then, return the lever to the HOLD position. Repeat this procedure until the bucket is empty.

To achieve the maximum angle for dumping, use the stops for the bucket.
Striking the stops unnecessarily and repetitively can result in accelerated wear and high maintenance cost of the loader linkage.
