14. Transportation
2-82
After loading the machine in a safe position on the truck,
secure the machine as follows:
1) Place the blade down on the ground.
2) Extend the bucket and arm cylinders to the maximum
limit, and slowly lower the boom down on a block of
wood.
3) Stop the engine to take the key out of the starter switch.
(The brake works to lock the swing motor.)
4) Be sure to lock the control levers with the lock levers.
5) Provide wood blocks in the front and back of the track
and secure the machine with a chain or a wire rope so
that the machine will not move during shipping. In par-
ticular, be sure to secure it to prevent skidding.
IMPORTANT
To protect the bucket cylinder from being damaged
during shipping, place a wooden block under one end
of the bucket to prevent it from directly touching the
deck of the truck.
14-2. Precautions for loading the machine
Load or unload the machine on level, solid ground
far away from the shoulder of the road.
