Transporting Wheel Loader (Urgent Situation)
The following procedures shall only be applied to cases when
urgently moving the wheel loader a short distance is required.
When required to transport the wheel loader long distance,
use a trailer.
Precautions for Self-Traveling
Avoid driving the wheel loader long distances at high-speed
as much as possible as it may overheat the tires, possibly
resulting in premature tire damage and/or wear. Keep the
following points in mind when transporting the wheel
loader by self-traveling.
Observe the rules and regulations associated to this
wheel loader, and travel carefully.
Recommended tire pressures and traveling speeds may
vary depending on the type of tires used and the road
conditions. Consult your nearest Hitachi dealer.
Check the tire pressure before self-traveling when the
tires are cool.
After driving the wheel loader for one hour, allow the
wheel loader to park for 30 minutes and meanwhile,
check the tires and every part of the machine for any
abnormality, and also check the oil and coolant levels.
Keep the bucket empty when traveling.
Do not drive the machine with the tires containing
calcium chloride or dry ballast, which accelerate heating.
