Move the bucket as shown in A.
Move the flat side of the bucket parallel to the ground.
B
C
Excavate as follows:
• Penetrate into the ground with bucket D
• Lower the stick and at the same time align bucket E until
• reaching the required digging depth and
• the flat side of the bucket is parallel to ground
Pull bucket E parallel to the ground toward the excavator. At the same time, if possible:
• Move the stick toward the excavator
• Lower boom
F
With a sufficiently full bucket E:
• Keep on moving the stick toward the excavator and at the same time
• Curl stick F
• Excavating trenches is more efficient
by using a suitable bucket for this work and positioning the tracks parallel to the limit
line of the trench.
In case of large trenches, first excavate the side sections and then the center section.
• Loading in confined areas with a limited angle of rotation is more efficient
by positioning the transport vehicle so as to ensure maximum visibility of the transport
vehicle for the operator of the excavator.
• Loading material onto transport vehicles is more efficient
if the excavator is at the rear end of the transport vehicle and not at the side.
Information!
Position B causes the bucket to penetrate into the ground. Work slows down, and
the engine and the hydraulic pump are subject to overload if this position is used
over a longer period of time!
Position C causes the bucket to be forced upward and not to be filled completely.
