9. Confirm final "check-off" of items on the Checklist.
BURNISHING BRAKE PADS
Brake pads must be burnished to achieve full braking
effectiveness. Braking distance will be extended until
brake pads are properly burnished.
! WARNING
Do not attempt sudden stops or put yourself into a
situation where a sudden stop will be required until
the brake pads are properly burnished.
1. Choose an area sufficiently large to safely acceler-
ate to 50 km/h (30 mph) and to brake to a stop.
2. Accelerate to 50 km/h (30 mph); then press brake
pedal to decelerate to 0-8 km/h (0-5 mph).
3. Repeat procedure twenty times.
! WARNING
Using the Operator's Manual as a guide, instruct the
customer on the proper use, care, burnishing proce-
dure (when brake pads are new), and maintenance of
the hydraulic brake system.
TRANSPORTING
NOTE: When transporting the vehicle, make sure
the vehicle is in park.
Inform the owner/operator that this vehicle must be
transported in its normal operating position (on all four
wheels) and secured with hold-down straps in the
proper areas. Shown is the minimum number of hold-
down straps to be used.
10
If using additional hold-down straps in any other
areas, care must be taken not to damage the vehicle.
Use extreme caution when operating a machine on a
ramp.
Ensure that the ROPS will clear the top of an
enclosed trailer.
Use only a full-width ramp; do not use individual
ramps for each side of the machine.
Do not exceed a 15-degree angle between the ramp and
the ground or between the ramp and the trailer or truck.
Ensure the length of ramp is at least four times (4X)
as long as the height of the trailer or truck bed to the
ground. This will ensure that ramp angle does not
exceed 15-degrees on flat ground.
Avoid sudden acceleration or deceleration while
driving the machine on a ramp as this could cause a
loss of control or a tip-over situation.
