(4) One push power-up function
The kick-down switch also functions as a power-up switch in first gear. The
first time the kick-down switch is depressed it functions as a kick-down switch
and gear speed is reduced. When the machine is in E operation mode and
first gear, pressing the kick-down switch a second time changes the operation
mode to P allowing increased power for heavy digging operation. The
operation mode returns to E when machine gear speed changes or direction
changes to reverse.

(4) Variable transmission cut-off system
The operator can continuously adjust the transmission
cut-off pressure desired for the left brake pedal using
switch located on the right-side control panel.
The operator can improve the working performance by
setting the cut-off pressure properly depending on
working condition.
Cut-off Cut-off
ON / OFF adjustment
switch switch
Higher cut-off pressure allows the transmission to
remain engaged at higher engine rpm / hydraulic
pressure for increased performance in ramp loading
and pilling up operations.
Lower cut-off pressure disengages the transmission

at lower rpm / hydraulic pressure.
The vehicle can be braked smoothly with less
shock when approach to dump truck.

(5) Electronically Controlled Suspension System (ECSS)
(Optional)
The accumulator of ECSS absorbs a large part of
low frequency vibration such as pitching and
bouncing caused by unevenness of roads to attain
high travel performance and reduce the fatigue of
operator. Less material spills during load & carry
operation. The loader can travel smoothly at
higher speed.
