• Never attach the chain hooks in such a way as to damage brake lines or other
functional parts.
• Ensure proper ground clearance of the underlift boom when travelling. Keep the
underlift boom raised high enough o the ground when roading to avoid dragging
it over road surfaces.
• Do not use machine as a ground when performing any welding operations.
• Never tie-down the front of the recovery vehicle. This procedure may place
excessive load on the chassis frame or other structural components leading to
damage and costly repairs.
• Don’t travel with the PTO engaged. Damage to the recovery vehicles transmission
and hydraulic components will occur. Engage the PTO only when operating the
hydraulic controls. Some PTO/Transmission combinations allow for the PTO to
be operated during travel. Consult your specic PTO Operators Manual.
