This reputation as the most useful is due to the wide-ranging tasks that the machine is capable of performing. These wide-ranging jobs, in turn, demand that operators have the knowledge, skills, and experience required for safety and productivity. The first edition of this book, Operating Techniques for the Tractor-Loader-Backhoe, published in 1983, was written simply as an information source covering standard machine operations and procedures. Over the years, training programs sought it out for its practical and detailed information for operators and training programs, such as: guidelines, safety considerations, and preventing damage to existing utilities.

"The majority of farm tractor front end loaders that are available on the market are made to agricultural standards not industrial standards. The use of low quality agricultural grade components such as hydraulic cylinders are commonplace on these agricultural type loaders, whereas high quality industrial grade components are fitted to industrial loaders. Constant heavy duty use of agricultural loaders for tasks such as clearing rocks, shifting large hay bales and earth moving soon fatigue the lightly constructed frames and components, leading to their ultimate failure. This type of work subjects the loader to different dynamic loads. Most of the farm loaders currently on the market are designed on the basis of static loads. Static loads are many times less than the dynamic loads, placed on the loader. Dynamic loads are the result of, rapid application of load, resonance between members, periodically varying load, impact blows and shocks. " -- Abstract/Synopsis.
