WARNING
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.
• Use only a full-width ramp; do not use individual
ramps for each side of the machine.
• Do not exceed a 15-degree angle between the
ramp and the ground or between the ramp and
the trailer or truck.
• Ensure the length of ramp is at least four times
(4X) as long as the height of the trailer or truck
bed to the ground. This will ensure that ramp
angle does not exceed 15 degrees on flat ground.
• Back up ramps and drive forward down ramps.
• 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.
