What happens here

The presenter enters the loader's cab, demonstrating the proper entry method using grab handles and steps. He then starts the machine with a key, adjusts the throttle, and engages/disengages the parking brake. The cab's features include an information screen displaying RPM and fuel levels, air conditioning controls (AC), and the main joystick for loader functions. A key operational feature demonstrated is the articulated steering, where the rear section of the machine 'wags its tail' to turn, unlike a skid steer's pivot turning.

Goal: Understand the loader's interior controls and unique steering mechanism

Tools and materials

  • Glass Break Tool — Emergency exit from the cab in case of being pinned
  • Ignition Key — Starting the loader's engine
