OPERATION
Securing Machine
After placing the machine on the specified position of the trailer, secure it according to the following procedure.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the bucket cylinder during transportation, fit a
wooden block at one end of the bucket cylinder to prevent it from touching
the floor.
1. Lower the blade.
2. Extend the bucket and arm cylinders fully, then lower the boom
slowly.
3. Stop the engine, then remove the key from the starting switch.
4. Secure control levers with the lock lever.
5. Lock the covers with locks.
See "Opening and Closing Covers with Lock (PAGE 3-19)".
NOTICE
Do not use the hole at the back of the track frame for towing or lifting the
machine.
6. Place blocks under both ends of the tracks to prevent the
machine from moving during transportation, and secure the
machine with chains or wire rope of suitable strength.
Be particulary careful to secure the machine in position so it
does not slip to the side.
When securing with a chain or wire rope, use the hole at the
rear of the track frame and the hole in the blade side plate.
