2.15 Parking the Machine
• Stop the machine only on an even and solid surface.
• Lower the lift arms to the frame stop and rest the bucket on the ground.
• Shut the machine down as described in section 5.12.
• Close the machine doors and windows (if equipped), remove the key to
secure the machine against unauthorized use.
2.16 Towing/Retrieving the Machine
• Always observe the correct procedure as described in the operating
instructions.
• The machine should be towed only in exceptional cases, for example to
bring the machine away from an endangered place for repair.
• Towing equipment such as chains, cables, etc., must be of the correct
capacity and must use both of the multi-purpose tie down locations on the
rear of the chassis.
• Pull the chains taut slowly and carefully. A sudden jerk can cause sagging
chains or cables to tear or snap.
