    3.3 LIFTING AND TRANSPORTING See section 2.3 of this manual for the “overall dimensions of the machine”, while for the loading on a lorry by using ramps, follow what explained below.  Close the loading/unloading areas, forbidding the entrance to foreign people and clearing the zone from obstacles and dangerous stuffs.
  • Page 16 ATTENTION!!! It is recommended to close the fuel valve every time the vehicle is transported or handled in order to prevent causing harm or damage. To load and unload the transporter from the truck, it is suggested to act as shown below. Particular attention has to be taken during the overcome of the connection between the ramps and the lorry loading platform, which can cause an excessive gradient.
