Bobcat 742B Operation & Maintenance Manual – PDF DOWNLOAD
FOREWORD:
- This Operation & Maintenance Manual was written to give the owner/operator instructions on the safe operation and maintenance of the Bobcat loader.
- READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING YOUR LOADER. If you have any questions, see your Bobcat loader dealer.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
SAFETY IS THE OPERATOR’S RESPONSIBILITY:
- The Skid Steer Loader is a highly maneuverable and compact machine. In operation, it is rugged and useful under a wide variety of conditions. This presents an operator with hazards associated with off highway, rough terrain applications. The loader has an internal combustion engine with resultant heat and exhaust.
- All exhaust gases can kill or cause illness so the loader must be used with adequate ventilation. The loader has a spark arrestor muffler which is required for operation in certain areas. The dealer explains the capabilities and restrictions of the loader and attachments for each application.
- The dealer demonstrates the safe operation of the loader according to Melroe’s instructional materials; which are also available to operators. The dealer can also identify unsafe modifications or use of unapproved attachments.
- The attachments and buckets are designed for rated capacity and secure fastening to the loader. The user must check with the dealer, or Melroe Company literature, to determine safe loads of materials of specified densities for his loader–attachment combination.
The following publications and training materials provide information on the safe use and maintenance of the loader and attachments:
