Ride control
Ride control reduces fore and aft pitching motion during transport and material hauling operations, while allowing
increased productivity and operator comfort. Ride control also reduces shock loads to the machine.
When ride control is activated, the loader down pressure is limited to the wight of the loader and the attachment
(bucket). The weight of the loader attachment is hydraulically cushioned during transport.
NOTE: Ride control should not be used for fine grading with the loader bucket, during backhoe operation or when
precise placement of the loader is required.
Enable/disable
WARNING
Stand clear of the loader arms. With ride control enabled and the key switch in the ON or ACC position,
the loader arms can drop slightly due to the hydraulic accumulator.

Tire pressure
DANGER
Explosion hazard!
Welding to a wheel can create an explosive air and gas mixture. Removing air from the tire or loosen-
ing the tire on the wheel (breaking the bead) will NOT eliminate the hazard. ALWAYS remove the tire
completely from the wheel before welding.
D0033A
WARNING
Explosion hazard!
When inflating tires, use a clip-on air chuck with a gauge, remote valve, and hose long enough to
allow you to stand to one side and NOT in front of or over the wheel assembly. Keep others out of the
DANGER AREA. Never inflate a tire beyond the maximum allowable pressure printed on the tire.
W0059A
Check the condition and pressure of the tires as needed.

Tires will loose air on a regular basis. Check the tire pres-
sure and condition more often when working in extreme
conditions or weather.
NOTE: Tire inflation pressure affects the amount of weight
that a tire may carry.
It is recommended that you have a qualified tire mechanic
service the tires and rims on these machines. It is recom-
mended that you have this mechanic inflate the tires.
Inspect the tire for damaged tread or side walls.
Inspect the rim for damage.
Confirm that the wheel is properly mounted to
the machine.
Use an air hose with a remote shutoff and
stand behind the tire tread.
