Loaders are ideal for shoveling and moving materials over short distances. With the development of society and the continuous improvement of people's awareness level, loaders are becoming more and more widely used in various industries. At the same time, it also brings huge economic benefits to users. With the rise in fuel prices, how to better use and fully utilize the performance of the loader, while also saving fuel and reducing the cost of use and maintenance, has become an urgent concern for more and more users. Through practical exploration, I have summarized the six-step "Flexible Loader Operation Method" for driving a loader well: namely: one light, two stable; three separation, four diligent; five coordination, six strict prohibition. One light: When the loader is operating, the heels are pressed against the cab floor and the feet are kept parallel to the accelerator pedal. Gently press down on the accelerator pedal, and always keep the pedal pressed gently. This allows the fuel to be fully burned and prevents the driver from using too much accelerator to make his feet heavy and his hands messy. Second stability: When the loader is working, the throttle must always be steady. Under normal working conditions, the maximum throttle setting is about 70%. This allows the machine to "breathe evenly" like people jogging during work, greatly reducing fuel consumption and extending the service life of the machine. The benefits are reflected in such natural work. The good thing is to reduce losses every moment and achieve long-term economic benefits. Three separation: When the loader is operating, the feet should be separated from the brake pedal and placed flat on the cab floor. Never step on the brake pedal. The working environment of loaders is often on uneven working sites. If the foot is pressed on the brake pedal for a long time, the driver will inadvertently brake automatically due to the movement of the vehicle body. Under normal circumstances, the vehicle condition and gear shifting should be controlled by controlling the throttle and deceleration. This not only avoids overheating of the brake system caused by frequent braking, but also brings convenience to the loader's quick speed increase. This avoids a series of seemingly difficult-to-solve problems such as caliper disc heating and intermittent braking caused by overheating of the brake system, as well as oil leakage from the brake booster pump. Four Qin: When the loader is operating, especially when the loader encounters resistance during shoveling work, do not use the method of slamming the accelerator to control the vehicle condition. It is still necessary to keep the loader in normal working condition and keep the bucket full of materials by moving the lifting and bucket control levers cyclically while the throttle is stable. Due to the needs of work, the cyclic pulling of the lifting and rotating bucket control levers is what is called "diligence" here. This process is very important. The amount of fuel consumption is very critical in the process of these operations and should be paid special attention to by the operator. Five coordination: Coordination is the organic cooperation of the lifting and rotating bucket joysticks. The general shoveling work process of a loader is to first level the bucket on the ground and drive smoothly towards the material pile. When the bucket encounters resistance when shoveling parallel to the material pile, the principle of raising the arm first and then retracting the bucket should be followed. This can effectively prevent the resistance between the bottom of the bucket and the ground, so that the maximum digging force can be fully exerted. This back-and-forth parallel operation process solves the problem of smoothness of the work site, comfort of the driver and unsafe factors in the work site, and eliminates the need to clean the work site separately. It reduces the time for leveling the site alone, increases the effective workload, improves work efficiency, and saves fuel. In the organic coordination of the boom and bucket control lever, the loader's large breakout force is fully utilized. If the control lever is properly coordinated, even a light and steady throttle can smoothly fill the bucket with materials. Six strict prohibitions: There are four specific aspects. When the loader is working, 1. It is strictly prohibited to slam the throttle. Whether the loader is walking or during shoveling operations, do not step on the accelerator pedal hard, and always keep the accelerator control light, steady, and gentle. Fully reduce and reduce human failures in operations. 2. Tire slipping is strictly prohibited. When the loader is working, if the accelerator is pressed hard when encountering resistance, the tires will often slip. The occurrence of this phenomenon is not a problem with the loader, but is usually caused by the driver's improper operation. This not only increases fuel consumption but also causes tire damage, causing unnecessary trouble. Therefore, this phenomenon should be strictly prohibited for loader drivers. 3. It is strictly prohibited to lift the rear wheel. Due to the large breakout force of the loader, when the driver is usually shoveling solid original soil and stone mountains, if the operator does not operate properly, it is easy for the rear two wheels to tilt up, or even be very high from the ground. The landing inertia of these repeated tilting movements causes the blade of the bucket to break and the bucket to deform. When the rear wheel is severely tilted, it may easily cause the welding joints of the front and rear frames and other structural parts to crack, or even break the plates. Therefore, the loader driver should strictly prohibit the rear wheel tilting during the shoveling operation! 4. It is strictly prohibited to hit the pile. When the loader is working, ordinary materials can be excavated with a second-speed shovel. It is strictly prohibited to make inertial impact on the material pile at the second gear or above! The correct method should be to timely switch the gear to first gear when the bucket approaches the material pile to complete a shoveling process. Therefore, correct operation of the loader can not only reduce the driver's labor intensity. The more important point is that it can reduce the failure rate of the loader, save fuel, and reduce the user's cost of use. This also reflects the direct and indirect economic benefits brought by users' use of loaders. "Flexible Loader Operation Method" is especially suitable for those who are new to driving loaders.
Because developing good and correct operating habits is a strong guarantee for the loader to consume less fuel and have a lower failure rate. It can also serve as a good reference for experienced drivers who have not undergone professional training. For loader sellers and repair centers, this method can be used to guide user operations. When holding activities in the loader driver club, the "flexible operation method of the loader" can also be used in game projects such as fuel-saving work of loader drivers in the driver club.
