LIFT VEHICLE TRANSPORT
The platform vehicle is equipped with lifting and tow
features, Figure 3-5. Read the following instructions before
using these features to lift or tow the vehicle.
Figure 3-5. Lifting and Tow Features.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to push the lift vehicle or use
the lift vehicle to pull another vehicle or object.
Pushing the lift vehicle or using the vehicle for
towing may cause serious equipment damage.
The forks of a lift truck (2-ton minimum capacity) can
be used to raise the ESP 19 for loading onto a trailer
or for blocking up the lift vehicle for maintenance.
Forks must be inserted a minimum of 32 inches
before raising the ESP 19.
Before towing the ESP 19 lift vehicle, you must
manually disengage the travel brake and disconnect
the steering cylinder from the steering linkage. Refer
to the illustrations in Figure 3-6.
