WARNING
Improper operation or service of this machine can result in an accident.
Read and understand the SAFETY INFORMATION Section before you perform any maintenance, ser-
vice, or repairs. Read and understand the specific service procedures for the components you plan
to work with before you start servicing the machine.
Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.
W0138A
Inspection
Thoroughly inspect the fully assembled loader and tractor prior to operation
1. Check all hardware to ensure that it has been properly installed and tightened. Check that the hardware is tight
after the first 10 hours of operation and every 50 hours thereafter.
2. Check the tire pressure. Refer to the Specifications section of this manual for recommended pressures.
3. Review the lubrication schedule to be certain that all pivot points have been properly lubricated.
4. Inspect all hose and tubing connections for leaks.
Installing Counterbalance
WARNING
Roll-over hazard!
Before operating a tractor with a loader, ballast the tractor-loader combination so that a minimum of
25 percent of the total weight is on the rear wheels, with the rated load in the bucket in maximum
forward position.
Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.
W0291A
Sufficient weight can be added to the tractor by filling the rear tires with liquid ballast, or by installing a three-point hitch
counterweight. If three-point hitch counterweight is used, carry it as low as possible at all times to maximize stability.
The effective counterbalance weight of mounted rear equipment is determined by multiplying the actual weight of the
equipment by 1.50.
EXAMPLE: If equipment weighing 400 lbs is attached to the rear of the tractor, multiply 400 lbs by 1.50. This equals
600 lbs of effective counterbalance weight.
Make sure that the FOPS (Falling Object Protective Structure) is installed.
Refer to the counterbalance chart in the Specifications section of this manual.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Operating the loader
WARNING
Avoid injury!
Excessive speed is dangerous and may cause spillage and excessive strain on the bucket.
Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.
W1306A
The loader should be operated with the tractor engine run-
ning at 1700 - 2200 RPM.
When operating in temperatures below -17 °C (0 °F), run
the tractor engine below 1500 RPM and do not operate
the loader for approximately 10 to 15 minutes to allow the
hydraulic oil to increase in temperature.
The following text and illustrations present suggested
loader and tractor operating techniques.
Handling large heavy objects
WARNING
Handling large heavy objects can be extremely dangerous!
Using front end loaders for handling large round or rectangular bales, logs, and oil drums is not rec-
ommended. If you must perform the above type of work, protect yourself by following all instructions
below and in the SAFETY INFORMATION section.
Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.
W0027A
When handling large heavy objects, ALWAYS do the fol-
lowing:
• Use the proper attachment.
• Never lift the load higher than necessary to clear the
ground when moving.
• Ballast the tractor rear to compensate for the load.
• Never lift large objects with equipment that does not
have an anti-rollback device.
• Move slowly and carefully, and avoid rough terrain.

Ease the single lever control back to lift the bucket and to
the left to roll back the bucket.
NHIL13CT00862AA
2
4-2
4 - WORKING OPERATIONS
The lift and rollback of the bucket increases efficiency.
(1) Do this.
NHIL13CT00863AA

This is because a level bucket throughout the lifting cycle
resists bucket lift and increases breakaway effort.
(2) Not This
NHIL13CT00864AA

WARNING
Roll-over hazard! A full bucket in the raised
position alters the center of gravity of the ma-
chine.
When operating a loader with a full bucket on
slopes, observe the following precautions:
1. Avoid turning the machine on slopes.
2. Always drive slowly straight up and down
slopes.
3. Always carry the load as low as possible.
Failure to comply could result in death or se-
rious injury.
W0018A
NOTE: Do not be concerned if the bucket is not com-
pletely filled during each pass. Maximum productivity is
determined by the amount of material loaded in a given
period of time, and time is lost if two or more attempts are
made to fill the bucket on each pass.
Lifting the load
Keep the bucket positioned to avoid spillage when lifting
the load.
NOTICE: Do not attempt to lift bucket loads in excess of
loader capacity.
NHIL13CT00865AA

4-3
4 - WORKING OPERATIONS
Carrying the load
Position the bucket just below the level of the tractor hood.
This provides for maximum stability and visibility, whether
the bucket is loaded or empty.
NHIL13CT00866AA
6
Carry the bucket as low as possible when operating the
loader on a slope. This keeps the bucket and tractor cen-
ter of gravity low, providing maximum tractor stability.
(1) Do this.
(2) Not this.
NHIL13CT00867AA
7
When transporting the load, keep the bucket as low as
possible. This helps to avoid tipping in the event a wheel
drops into a rut.
(1) Do this.
(2) Not this.
NHIL13CT00868AA

Dumping the bucket
Lift the bucket high enough to clear the vehicle's side.
Move the tractor in as close as possible to the side of the
vehicle, and then dump the bucket.
Lowering the bucket
After the bucket is dumped, back away from the vehicle
while lowering and rolling back the bucket.
NHIL13CT00869AA

4 - WORKING OPERATIONS
Operating with float control
The bucket will wear faster if hydraulic down pressure is
exerted during loader operation. To prevent this from oc-
curring, keep the bucket level and put the lift control in the
float position during hard surface operation, allowing the
bucket to float on the working surface.
NHIL13CT00870AA
10
Utilizing the float position also helps prevent the mixing of
surface material with stockpile material. This is because
the float position reduces the chance of surface gouging
when removing snow or other material, or when working
with a blade.
(1) Surface material.
NHIL13CT00871AA

Loading from a bank
Choose a forward gear that provides sufficient ground
speed for loading.
Load from the lowest position possible for maximum ef-
ficiency. Loader lift and breakaway capacity diminish as
loading height is increased.
NHIL13CT00872AA
12
WARNING
Falling objects!
Dirt slides can be dangerous. Exercise ex-
treme care when undercutting high banks.
Watch for falling rocks and cave-ins.
Failure to comply could result in death or se-
rious injury.
W0021A
Side-cutting is a good technique for cutting down a large
pile of material.
NHIL13CT00873AA

4 - WORKING OPERATIONS
If the pile sides are too high and likely to cause cave-in,
use the loader to break down the sides until a slot can be
cut over the top.
NHIL13CT00874AA

Another effective method of loading from large dirt piles is
to build a ramp approach
NHIL13CT00875AA
15
NOTE: Keep the bucket level when approaching a bank
or pile to help prevent gouging the work area.
NHIL13CT00876AA
16
Peeling and scraping
Use a slight bucket angle, travel forward, and hold the lift
control forward to start the cut. Make a short angle cut 1.5
- 2.4 m (5 - 8 ft) and break out cleanly.
(1) 152 mm (6.0 in).
NHIL13CT00877AA

4 - WORKING OPERATIONS
With the bucket level, start a cut at the notch approxi-
mately 51 mm (2 in) deep. Hold the depth by feather-
ing the bucket control to adjust the cutting lip up or down.
When the front tires enter the notch, adjust the lift cylinder
to maintain proper depth.
NHIL13CT00878AA
18
Make additional passes until the desired depth is reached.
During each pass, use the bucket control only while at
working depth. This allows you to concentrate on control-
ling the bucket angle and maintaining a precise cut.
NHIL13CT00879AA
19
Loading low trucks or spreaders from a pile
Minimize the angle of turn and length of run between the
pile and spreader for faster loading.
NHIL13CT00880AA
20
Back-grade occasionally with a loaded bucket to keep the
working surface free of ruts and holes. Hold the lift control
forward so the full weight of the bucket is scraping the
surface and use the heel of the bucket.
NHIL13CT00881AA

Backfilling
Approach the pile with a flat bucket. Poor methods move
no more dirt and make it more difficult to hold a level
grade.
(1) Do this
