CAUTION: Never move the load suddenly. Nevermove load over persons head. DO NOT allowany persons near the load. Keep all personsaway from raised load until blocks aresupporting it or load is sitting on the ground.

Make sure chain/sling is in good condition andis rated for load you are lifting.

1. For maximum lifting capability, attach chain/sling tobuckets at positions shown. Refer to Specificationssection for capacities of backhoe.

2. Attach a hand line to load for stability. Use longenough line to ensure that person holding it is a safedistance from load.

3. Before lifting, perform following test of load stability:

NOTE: If using backhoe to lift, raise rear tires off ground50 mm (2 in.) and ensure machine is level. Ifground is soft, place boards or other wide supportunder stabilizer feet to increase stability.

a. Park machine close to load.

b. Attach load to chain/sling.

c. Raise load 50 mm (2 in.) above ground.

d. If using backhoe, swing load all the way to oneside.

e. While keeping load close to the ground, extend itaway from machine.

If there is any indication of reduced stability of yourmachine, lower load to the ground and make necessaryadjustments so machine can successfully perform test. Donot lift load until machine can perform test at acceptablelevel.

Diesel Fuel

Consult your local fuel distributor for properties of thediesel fuel available in your area.

In general, diesel fuels are blended to satisfy the lowtemperature requirements of the geographical area inwhich they are marketed.

Diesel fuels specified to EN 590 or ASTM D975 arerecommended.

In all cases, the fuel shall meet the followingproperties:

Cetane number of 40 minimum. Cetane numbergreater than 50 is preferred, especially fortemperatures below -20 C (-4 F) or elevations above1500 m (5000 ft).

Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) below theexpected low temperature OR Cloud Point at least5 C (9 F) below the expected low temperature.

Fuel lubricity should pass a minimum of 3100 gramload level as measured by the BOCLE scuffing test.

Sulfur content:

Sulfur content should not exceed 0.5%. Sulfurcontent less than 0.05% is preferred.

If diesel fuel with sulfur content greater than 0.5%sulfur content is used, reduce the service interval forengine oil and filter by 50%.

DO NOT use diesel fuel with sulfur content greaterthan 1.0%.

Bio-diesel fuels may be used ONLY if the fuelproperties meet DIN 51606 or equivalent specification.

DO NOT mix used engine oil or any other type oflubricant with diesel fuel.

TX,45,JC2126 1915AUG971/1

Low Sulfur Diesel Fuel Conditioner

When possible, use existing fuel formulations for enginesused off-highway. This fuel will not require any additivesto provide good performance and engine reliability.However, many local fuel distributors will not carry bothlow and regular sulfur diesel fuels.

If the local fuel distributor will supply only low sulfur fuel,order and use John Deere PREMIUM DIESEL FUELCONDITIONER. It provides lubricating properties alongwith other useful benefits, such as cetane improver,anti-oxidant, fuel stabilizer, corrosion inhibitor and others.John Deere PREMIUM DIESEL FUEL CONDITIONER isspecifically for use with low sulfur fuels. Nearly all otherdiesel fuel conditioners only improve cold weather flowand stabilize long-term fuel storage. They do not containthe lubrication additives needed by rotary fuel injectionpumps.

Handling and Storing Diesel Fuel

CAUTION: Handle fuel carefully. Do not fillthe fuel tank when engine is running.

DO NOT smoke while you fill the fuel tank orservice the fuel system.
