excavator
Esta expresion aparece en el manual de una excavadora. Al lado del texto que transcribo a continuacion hay una excavadora retirando tierra de un camion volquete (dump truck) que se encuentra enfrente. No se como interpretar la expresion, ya que traducirla simplemente como "leer" me parece que no tendria mucho sentido. Gracias por la ayuda. (Perdon por no poner tildes, pero al ponerlas se desconfiguran las letras. No se cual es el problema).
LOADING WORK
Position the dump truck so as to achieve a small swing radius and good visibility for the operator to work effectively.
Also ***read over*** the rear of the dump truck, rather than over the side, as this makes the operator?s work easier and increases efficiency.

cargar por encima - de la parte trasera
Por absurdo a mi me parece que el tema de leer no tiene nada que ver - con el contexto. De acuerdo que "read" se traduce "leer" pero la frase no tiene ningún sentido mientras que si fuera "load" por ej. todo sería mas comprensible. Que quede claro que estoy sugeriendo que talvez haya algun error de impresion en el texto que te dieron para traducir...

Comment: "Sure, it's a typo. A similar text reads: "Loading dump trucks is easier and the loading capacity
is greater if the mini excavator loads from the rear of the
dump truck rather than from the side." So, it could be "reach over" or "load from". "

léale o háblele al operador por encima de la parte trasera
Read over no se refiere a volver a leer sino a 'read over the rear of the dump truck.' Se refiere a leer (o hablar, no sé) por encima de la parte trasera.
