MOVING MACHINE ON THE WORKING SITE

• Before moving the machine check the following things:
• There is no person in the machine danger zone.
• The ground on the working site is level and stable.
• Leader foot is slightly above ground.
•
Telescope leader has been lowered down (if the machine is equipped with
telescope leader).
• Equipment (hammer/rotary head/vibrator) is as down as possible.
• Counterweight is fully out.
• Uppercarriage is parallel to undercarriage.
• Horizontal slide is max. 300 mm out.
• Leader is slightly (c. 5°) backwards inclined when moving on the level ground.
•
There are not any extra loads hanging on ropes, because the swinging of the load
may cause the falling of the machine.
•
All functions must be performed slowly with care and without sudden
movements.
• The stability of the machine does not support sudden movements. Use support mats
under the tracks when needed.
• It is recommended not to travel long distances with the pile in the leader because
there may be soft areas, humps, ditches, etc. which may cause the machine to loose
its stability.
• If you have to move further, the pile has to be removed from the leader and the
equipment (hammer/rotary head/vibrator) has to be lowered as down as possible. The
leader has to be lowered to the transport position, if necessary.
• If you have to move the machine in the slope (max. 5°) the leader has to be inclined
according to enclosed tables, in order to maintain the machine stability. It is,
however, recommended, that the pile is removed from the leader and the equipment
(hammer/rotary head/vibrator) is lowered as down as possible before driving the
machine to the slope.
• Drive the machine to the slope only at right angles up- or downwards, not diagonally
to slope inclination. The uppercarriage has to be parallel to the undercarriage.
• Drive extremely carefully in the turning point. Lower the leader foot as near the
ground as possible in order to use it as a support to reduce the swinging of the
machine in the turning point.
