NOTE: By lightly depressing the pedals forward and reverse, torque is developed to be
transferred to the drive wheels by the hydraulic motor and differential set-up.
The further the forward and reverse pedals are depressed, the faster ground speed.
Torque will decrease as ground speed increases.
3. Move the forward / reverse pedal to the neutral position to stop.
NOTE: The pedal returns to a neutral detent position when pressure is released from the
forward and reverse pedals.
LOADER CONTROL VALVE LEVER
The loader control valve returns to the neutral position when re-
leased, except when in the float position.
A - Move the control valve lever forward to lower loader arms.
AA - Move the control valve lever forward past the detent. This is the
float position.
B - Move the control valve lever back to raise the loader arms.
C - Move the control valve lever left to roll back the bucket.
D - Move the control valve lever right to dump the bucket.
For faster loader cycle times follow these simple tips:
1. Run engine at fast idle.
2. Move the loader boom and the bucket at the same time.
3. Without using force, move control valve lever fully toward each
function.
CAUTION
PREVENT POSSIBLE INJURY FROM
UNEXPECTED MACHINE MOVEMENT,
OPERATE THE LOADER ONLY WHEN
YOU ARE IN THE OPERATOR’S SEAT
FACING FORWARD.
OPERATING TIPS
Reduce speed when driving over rough terrain, carrying heavy loads, or working in a con-
gested area.
Whenever possible, avoid obstacles, such as rough terrain, rocks, curbs and ditches.
In general, by decreasing machine speed the control of the machine increases.
When the backhoe is not in use, the backhoe boom must be locked in the fully raised posi-
tion. Curl the backhoe bucket up and retract dipperstick.
When driving the TLB 6235 , carry the loader bucket low for good visibility and machine
stability.
Walk the job site to uncover any hazards and to plan the job.
Practicing good housekeeping on the job site will help maximize machine stability, reduce
operator fatigue, and increase productivity.
Material that is loose and fragmented dumps much easier than material that is hard and
compacted.
Excavate material in thin layers rather than jamming it into the bucket. This will allow the
material to break up as it enters the bucket. This is especially important when moving sticky,
wet materials
