PRECAUTIONS DURING OPERATION
TRANSPORTATION
This machine must be disassembled for transportation. When transporting the machine, please consult your
Komatsu distributor.
LOADING AND UNLOADING
When loading or unloading the machine, mistaken operation may
bring the hazard of the machine tipping over or falling, so particular
care is necessary. Always do as follows.
Perform loading and unloading on firm, level ground only.
Maintain a safe distance from the edge of the road or cliff.
Always use ramps of adequate strength. Be sure that the ramps
are wide, long, and thick enough to provide a safe loading slope.
Take suitable steps to prevent the ramps from moving out of
position or coming off.
Be sure the ramp surface is clean and free of grease, oil, ice and
loose materials. Remove dirt from machine-tracks. On a rainy
day, in particular, be extremely careful since the ramp surface is
slippery.
Run the engine at low speed, drive the machine at low speed, and operate slowly.
Never correct your steering on the ramps. If necessary, drive off the ramps, correct the direction, then enter the
ramps again.
When loading or unloading to an embankment or platform, make sure that it has suitable width, strength, and
grade.
After loading the machine, always lock the door. There is danger that the door may open during transportation.
For details, see "TRANSPORTATION (PAGE 3-115)".
SHIPPING
When shipping the machine on a trailer, do as follows.
The weight, transportation height, and overall length of the machine differ according to the attachment, so be sure
to confirm the dimensions.
When passing over bridges or structures on private land, check first that the structure is strong enough to support
the weight of the machine. When traveling on public roads, check first with the relevant authorities and follow their
instructions.
Lock the articulation lock to prevent the machine from articulating.
For details of the transportation procedure, see "TRANSPORTATION (PAGE 3-115)" in the Operation Section.
