Haul the Machine (continued)
Loading the Machine
Loading a machine onto a trailer or truck increases the possibility of tip-over and
could cause serious injury or death.
• Use extreme caution when operating a machine on a ramp.
• Load and unload the machine with the heavy end up the ramp.
• Avoid sudden acceleration or deceleration while driving the machine on a ramp as
this could cause a loss of control or a tip-over situation.
1. If using a trailer, connect it to the towing vehicle and connect the safety chains.
2. If applicable, connect the trailer brakes.
3. Lower the ramp(s).
4. Load the machine onto the trailer with the heavy end up the ramp, carrying loads low.
• If the machine has a full hopper, drive the machine forward up the ramp
• If the machine has an empty hopper, back the machine up the ramp
5. Engage the parking brake and shut off the engine.
