6.3 Transport Loading / Unloading procedure
1. If loading onto a trailer, the trailer must be securely attached to the towing
vehicle. The towing vehicle must have the wheels blocked or parking brake
engaged.
2. Load the machine only on firm and level ground.
3 Before driving onto the ramps, clean them and the machine tracks of any
materials that may cause slippage (snow, ice, water, mud, sludge, oil, etc.).
4. Properly align the machine with the loading ramp.
5. Have a guide give the machine operator any necessary signs to maximize
safety during loading.
6. Back the machine carefully up the ramps and onto the transport vehicle.
Note: The heaviest end of the machine should remain uphill when operating on
an incline. Always back the machine onto the transport vehicle unless fitted with a
heavy attachment or loaded bucket.
7. Have a guide instruct you as to where and when to stop and park the
machine. Lower the lift arms and turn off the engine.
8. Before securing the machine, relieve all residual pressure by making sure
the operating levers and the auxiliary hydraulic switch are in their neutral
positions. Remove the ignition key.
9. Secure the door, windows and hood on the machine.
10. Secure the machine and any other items to the transport vehicle with
chains or ropes of the proper capacity.
11. Before departure, investigate the route to be taken, especially in regard to
limits for width, height and weight.
12. Pay close attention when driving under electrical lines, bridges, or through
tunnels.
Electrocution hazard exists if electrical lines are contacted! Stay clear of
electrical lines!
13. To unload, reverse steps 1-10 of this procedure. Use the same caution when
unloading as for loading. Remove all cables or chains. Start the engine as
described in the operating instructions. Carefully drive down the ramp from
the transport vehicle using a guide if necessary to direct movement.
