TRANSPORTING THE MACHINE

2.16.1

LOADING AND UNLOADING WITH RAMPS

The ramps must not be slippery and must be adequate to support the weight of the machine; this is
indicated on the CE plate or in this manual.
Before loading or unloading make sure the handling area of the machine and that destined for deposit pose
no danger.
All operators must maintain a safe distance to avoid being hit if the machine or some of its parts should fall.
Ask a person on the ground to monitor the manoeuvres. Block the wheels of the transport vehicle with
wedges. Release the machine from all anchor points to the platform of the transport vehicle. Slowly move
the machine, making sure the wheels are centred on the ramps.
2.16.2

LOADING AND UNLOADING WITH A CRANE

The crane must have a load capacity adequate to the weight [kg] of the machine; the weight is
indicated on the CE plate or in this manual. The chains or cables must have a minimum unit capacity of
6000 kg; before using them, make sure they are in good condition. Attach the chains to the points on the
machine indicated by the decals. Before starting the operations make sure the handling area of the
machine and that destined for deposit pose no danger.
Slowly lift the machine as little as required and lower it to the ground as soon as possible.
