1. Frequent Overloading

Trying to carry as much as possible with each load, often exceeding rated capacity.

Accelerated wear or failure of transmission, axles, boom arms; may cause accidents.

2. Raising the Bucket Too High While Driving

Operators keep the bucket high for better visibility or convenience.

Increases the risk of tipping due to higher center of gravity; blocks operator's view.

3. No Warm-Up Before Heavy Work

Starting work immediately after engine ignition in cold conditions.

Inadequate lubrication, increased engine wear, shortened engine life.

4. Improper Bucket Insertion Techniques

Inserting the bucket at an angle or hitting the ground/material aggressively.

May deform the bucket, break teeth, loosen linkage mechanisms.

5. Prolonged Low-Speed Heavy Load Driving

Constant heavy work on soft ground or slopes at low speeds.

Causes engine overheating, high oil temperature, transmission strain.

6. Neglecting Daily Checks and Maintenance

Minimal or no routine inspections and servicing.

Leads to breakdowns, lower efficiency, unplanned downtime.

7. Using the Loader for Non-Design Purposes

Using it as a bulldozer or crane for extended periods.

Damages hydraulic systems and structural components.

8. Ignoring Tire Pressure and Wear

Operating with underinflated or worn-out tires.

Reduces fuel efficiency
