UTTING IN TRANSPORT POSITION
During loading, ensure that :
• The loading ramp can support the machine weight.
• The loading ramp is correctly attached to transport vehicle.
• The loading ramp has sufficient grip surface.
• The transport vehicle must be parked on a level surface and must be secured to prevent
rolling away while machine is being loaded or unloaded.
To climb the slope, move progressively the drive joystick ( 108 ).
If the slope is too steep, use a winch in addition to traction.
Do not place yourself below or too close to the machine during loading.
A wrong move can lead to machine tipping over and may cause serious injuries and material damage.
The machine must be completely in the stowed configuration :
• Check the platform is completely empty.
• Platform extension must be retracted in the locked position.
• Drive the machine onto the truck bed.
• Secure the machine to the tie down points provided (See picture).
The manual extension (if fitted) must be retracted and locked during transport or towing.
