CAUTION: Help prevent bodily injury or death from electrical contact. Beware of lift clearance when raising loader to maximum height. Beware of low electrical wires when loader is raised. Do not leave the operator's seat if any part of tractor or loader contacts cables.

1. Carry load low to help prevent spillage and increase tractor-loader stability.

2. Raise loader to required height with bucket rolled back.

3. Dump load.

4. CAUTION: Do not move the loader multifunction control lever to "FLOAT" to lower the loader. Loss of control results and the loader will fall to the ground due to its own weight.

   IMPORTANT: Stop loader gradually when lowering heavy loads. Never drop a loaded attachment and “catch” hydraulically. Stopping a load after it has gained downward momentum may cause damage to the tractor or loader.

   Lower heavy load slowly to avoid possible tractor or loader damage. Move the control lever forward slightly enough to start gradual movement.
