PRECAUTIONS DURING THE INITIAL PERIOD OF
USE
Check the following parameters by means of the

instruments while traveling:
New vehicles require a short run-in period of at least

150/200 hours. Take the following precautions during
this time:
1.
The battery warning lamp (1) must be off at all

times.
2.
The engine coolant temperature (2) must be in

the specified range:
90 to 100C (194 to 212F)
3.
The oil pressure warning lamp (3) must be off

when the engine is running in normal working
conditions.
- Do not demand maximum engine power.

- After starting the engine, warm it up slowly, without
demanding an excessively high engine speed too
soon.
- Frequently check the engine oil level and the
transmission oil level.
- Check the auxiliary drive belt tension.
- Check the tightness of all wheel nuts.
NORMAL RUNNING
Do not exceed maximum engine speed, especially
downhill.
Use the transmission in manual mode to prevent driving for long stretches with the torque converter working. If this happens, select a lower gear. Extended use
of the torque converter will increase fuel consumption
and oil temperature.
Never travel with the transmission in Neutral.
Do not drain the fuel tank as this will cause the formation of air bubbles in the hoses and deposits of impurities which can reach the injection system from the
bottom of the tank.
WARNING
If the pressure is lower than the minimum level

(the alarm warning lamp is on), stop the vehicle,
stop the engine and investigate the causes.
4.
The automatic transmission oil temperature (4) in

normal working conditions must be in the specified range:
70 to 95C (160 to 200F)
WARNING
If the temperature is excessively high, select manual mode and engage a lower gear to prevent
torque converter slipping. If this is not sufficient,
stop the vehicle and investigate the causes.

WORKING WITH THE VEHICLE
The typical working cycle of the vehicle, regardless of
the type of job, can be divided into four phases:
Loading, hauling, dumping and empty return.
LOADING
The most common methods of loading are with
hydraulic excavators and front end loaders.
The vehicle can be loaded equally well from the rear
or the side. The truck driver must facilitate loading
operations for maximum material movement. The
shorter the distance the loading unit has to travel, the
more loading cycles it can make in a given period and
the quicker the truck will be ready to move off.
Waiting vehicles should stay about two vehicle lengths
behind the vehicle being loaded to avoid any spillage
from the loading vehicle or truck.
For some jobs, the loading vehicle may work more
efficiently when trucks are positioned on both sides.
Thus, while one vehicle is being loaded, the other
vehicle can move into position on the opposite side.
Since the vehicle is usually backed into the loading
position with this method, the operator must be alert
and careful while backing, especially when not
assisted from the ground. Where possible, the vehicle
should be positioned downwind of the loader especially when dusty material is being loaded and/or on a
windy day.
A cleanup dozer or small loader is often worked in
conjunction with the main loader to keep the area
clear of bucket spillage. The truck driver must always
be alert to the position of these machines to prevent
accidents and congestion.
The following precautions should be observed when
approaching the loading area:
- Avoid rocks and other spillage which can damage
the vehicle and particularly the tires.
- Allow the cleanup machine sufficient time to clear up
such debris.
- Do not approach the loading vehicle when the
bucket is swinging overhead, to avoid being hit by falling material.
HAULING AND EMPTY RETURN

When traveling on the haul road, keep to a safe speed
for the haul road conditions and grades.
When approaching or encountering soft or slippery
terrain, stop the machine and engage the differential
locks in time to prevent getting stuck.
Release the locks as soon as the conditions return to
normal.
Avoid rocks or other spillage which can damage the
vehicle and particularly the tires.
Keep a safe distance from the vehicle ahead, particularly on slippery ground or in bad weather conditions.
Observe the rules relating to braking distances and
speed on the site.
DUMPING
The dumping operation usually depends on the type
of material being hauled.
Prior to dumping, be aware of overhead wires. If electrical wires are contacted, remain in cab to prevent
electrocution.
Spoil and waste material is either dumped or piled up
in reverse.
In this case, the operation should be supervised and
directed by personnel on the ground.
While backing to dump, the vehicle driver must watch
the person on the ground and obey his instructions
while remaining seated.
When dumping into a hopper, avoid hitting into the
protective rail with the tires or scraping them against
the guides.
When dumping material over a spoil bank, the driver
must know how close the vehicle can approach the
edge under all weather conditions.
Before dumping, make sure that the wheels are supported by compact, flat ground.
Never dump on unstable ground.
Never raise dump body on uneven ground. Doing so
may cause the body to rollover.
Always lower dump body prior to return travel.

TIRES AND WHEELS
WARNING
Exploding tires and/or rim parts can cause injury

or death. Keep yourself and others out of the
DANGER AREA. Stand on the tread side of the
tire. Always use the correct air pressure and follow
the instructions in this manual for adding air or
servicing the tires.
WARNING
Explosive separation of the tire and/or rim parts

can cause injury or death. When tire service is
necessary, have a qualified tire mechanic service
the tire.
WARNING
DO NOT weld to wheel or rim when a tire is

installed. Welding will cause an explosive air/gas
mixture that will be ignited with high temperatures.
This can happen to tires inflated or deflated.
Removing air or breaking bead is not adequate.
Tire MUST be completely removed from the rim
prior to welding.

ADDING AIR TO THE TIRES
This procedure is only for adding air to the tire. If the
tire has lost most or all of the air, do the following:
1.
Before you add air, have the wheel correctly

installed on the machine or put the wheel in a
restraining device (tire inflation cage).
2.
Use an air hose with remote shutoff valve and a

self-locking air chuck.
3.
Stand BEHIND the tread of the tire and make

sure ALL persons are away from the side of the
tire before you start to add air.

R134a (tetrafluoroethane) coolant is used. This
coolant is classified as an environmentally-friendly
product by law. Do not use this fluid in systems
working with the previous fluid, R12 (Freon 12).
For reasons of incompatibility between compressor oil and fluid, do not use R12 in systems
designed to use R134a.
WARNING
Do not discharge R134a into the atmosphere.

Although the product has a zero ozone depletion
potential it has a global warming potential.
