7. Enter material density on Scale F 1780 kg/m 3 (3000 lb/yd 3 ). 8. Connect C through Scale F to Scale G to give pay- load weight per cycle 5300 kg (11,500 lb). 9. Compare Scale G quantity 5300 kg (11,500 lb) with recommended machine working range listed on the following bucket selection pages.

Operating capacity for the 950H with 3.1 m 3 (4 yd 3 ) bucket is dependent on material density and bucket capacity (see bucket selection pages that follow). 10. For hourly tonnage, draw a straight line from Scale G through Scale A to Scale I 400 metric tons (450 U.S. tons).
