PROCEDURE FOR LOADING ON TO TRAILER

1. With the work equipment in the standard travel position, align the machine with the trailer.
2. Lower the work equipment so that it is in the posture shown above. Be careful not to strike the trailer with the
demolition equipment
The stability of the machine is reduced when the equipment is in this position. Always move the machine
EXTREMELY SLOWLY and do not slew the machine.
3. Make sure the trailer is firmly secured and will not move when the machine approaches.
4. Slowly mount the trailer, making sure at all times that the tracks are properly aligned with the trailer. If the
machine becomes misaligned, reverse the machine from the trailer and start again. NEVER try to steer or
slew the machine when it is in contact with the trailer. Do not exceed an angle of 15 degrees from the horizon-
tal, as shown.
5. As the machine slowly travels onto the trailer, the weight of the work equipment will rock the machine onto the
trailer. Gently move the machine further onto the trailer, so that it stabilises.
