Towing the Machine
Perform the following steps when towing the machine:
•
Before operating the machine, stow the jack and
rear jack leg.
•
Do not allow the hydraulic hoses, the power cable,
and the pendant cables to drag on the ground
during operation. Avoid locations where they could
become pinched or cut.
•
When making sharp turns, the hydraulic hoses
may contact the traction unit wheels. Avoid making
sharp turns, if necessary, use a bungee cord (a
rubber strap with hooks on both ends) to pull back
the hoses and cables toward the center.
Electric Brake Operating
Tips
The load control compensates for trailer load
variations by limiting the maximum torque output
of the brakes by adding dropping resistance in the
electrical control line. Consider the following operating
conditions:
•
When towing a trailer loaded to brake rated
capacity, set the brake control for maximum
braking.
•
When pulling an empty or partially loaded trailer,
set the brake control between maximum and
minimum braking at a position, just before the point
at which the machine tire skids when actuating the
hand control fully on.
Failure to install and use the electric brake control
results in excessive brake torque when stopping a
machine loaded to less than brake capacity.
