TRANSFORMER GP-IGNITION 1240749 - Caterpillar

8. When reaching the dump area, move the lift control to the RAISE detent. The lift kickout will automatically return the lift control to HOLD.Loading Hauling Units
1. To reduce the loader turning and travel, position the hauling unit at an angle to the material being loaded. 2. The travel distance should be long enough for the bucket to reach the lift height without slowing loader movement. 3. Position the loader to dump the load in the center of the hauler body. If the hauler body is two bucket widths or more in length, dump from the front to the rear. 4. Push the tilt lever forward to dump the bucket. 5. Shake the bucket to loosen sticky material. Move the tilt lever back and forth quickly, allowing the tilt arms to strike the stops. 6. Put the tilt lever in the TILT BACK detent.Before lowering the bucket, make sure the hauling unit is out from under the bucket.7. Lower the bucket while positioning the loader for the next load.Loading from a Bank
Remove any overhang and watch for sliding material.
1. Start to load at the base of the bank and follow up the face. 2. Raise the bucket slightly and move away from the bank.Excavating
1. Lower the bucket to the ground and position for a slight digging angle. 2. Apply down pressure to the bucket as the loader starts forward. Return the lift control to HOLD when sufficient penetration is obtained. 3. Maintain level cuts, while moving forward, by raising and lowering the bucket. 4. When the bucket is loaded, tilt it back against the stops. Carry the loaded bucket approximately 40 cm (15 inches) above the ground when moving to the dump area.Loading Rock in a Quarry
Stay at a safe distance during blasting, and until the face is clear.Make absolutely sure that the loading area is safe before entering.Remove any overhang and watch for sliding material.If falling rock is encountered, quickly move as far away from the quarry face as possible.
Use a rock bucket with teeth when working in a quarry. 1. Start loading at the base of the rockpile. Very large boulders may have to be loaded individually. 2. Remove any overhang and watch for sliding material. 3. Load the fine material into the truck first. This will help minimize any damage to the truck.4. To reduce the dump shock on the hauling unit, dump from the lowest height possible.Loading Hoppers
1. Load the bucket (see "Loading from a Stockpile" steps 1 through 8). 2. When the lift kickout height is reached, dump the load into the hopper. If possible, dump with the wind to your back.Log Fork with Top Clamp
1. Position the fork in the center of the load, with the top clamp open. 2. Close the top clamp and tilt the fork back to hold the load against the fork uprights. 3. For best operator vision and loader stability, carry the load as low as possible. 4. Position the load over the stacking area. Tilt the
