Wheel Loader Safety
SHIPPING AND TRANSPORTATION
OBEY STATE AND LOCAL OVER-THE-ROAD REGULATIONS
Check state and local restrictions regarding weight, width and length of a load before making any other
preparation for transport.
Hauling vehicle, trailer and load must all be in compliance with local regulations governing intended
shipping route.
Partial disassembly or tear-down of wheel loader may be necessary to meet travel restrictions or particular
conditions at work site.
Refer to the section "Transportation" section of operation manual.
SUMMARY OF SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR
LIFTING
To make safe lifts, the following items must be
evaluated by operator and work site crew.
• Condition of ground support.
• Wheel loader configuration and
attachments.
• Weight, lifting height and lifting
radius.
• Safe rigging of load.
• Proper handling of suspended load.
Taglines on opposite sides of load can be very
helpful in keeping a suspended load secure, if
they are anchored safely to control points on
ground.
WARNING!
Improper lifting can allow load to shift and
cause personal injury or damage to the
machine
