TRANSPORTATION LOCK

To ready unit for transport, raise cutter with hydraulic
cylinder or ratchet. Lift transport bar and insert clevis
pin in slot "A" when it lines up with hole in lifting lug.
For normal operation, remove pin from transport bar
and insert into hole "B" and lower transport bar to
wheel yoke.
The clevis pin and hairpin are attached with a chain to
ensure they are available when required.
The transport bar should also be locked in the raised
position and the cutter should be securely blocked
before working underneath cutter. Failure to install
safety devices could result in unit dropping unexpect-
edly.
Never go underneath equipment (lowered to the
ground or raised) unless it is properly blocked and
secured. Never place any part of the body under-
neath equipment or between moveable parts even
when the engine has been turned off. Hydraulic
system leak down, hydraulic system failures,
mechanical failures, or movement of control levers
can cause equipment to drop or rotate unexpect-
edly and cause severe injury or death. Follow Oper-
ator's Manual instructions for working underneath
and blocking requirements or have work done by a
qualified dealer.
