THEFT DETERRENTS
Gehl Company has recorded all major component part
numbers and serial numbers. Users should take as
many of the following actions as possible to discour-
age theft, to aid in the recovery of the machine in the
event it is stolen, and to reduce vandalism:
1. Remove keys from unattended machines.
2. Attach, secure, and lock all anti-vandalism and
anti-theft devices on the machine.
3. Lock doors of cabs when not in use.
4. Inspect the gates and fences of the equipment stor-
age yard. If possible, keep machines in well-light-
ed areas. Ask the local law enforcement agency to
make frequent checks around the storage and work
sites, especially at night, during weekends, and on
holidays.
5. Report any theft to your dealer and insurance com-
pany. Provide the model and serial numbers.
Request your dealer to forward this information to

machine with the ramps.
WARNING
NEVER transport the machine with the boom
raised or extended. BE SURE to secure the
machine to the truck or trailer bed using chain
and binders or steel cables, to prevent any
movement while transporting.
