5.3.3LoadingaMachineontotheTransportingVehicle
The safe transit of the load is the responsibility of the transport contractor and driver.
Any machine, attachments or parts that may move during transit must be adequately
secured.
Before moving the machine onto the trailer, make sure that the trailer and ramp are free
from oil, grease and ice. Remove oil, grease and ice from the machine tyres. Make sure
the machine will not foul on the ramp angle. See Static Dimensions in
SPECIFICATION section for the minimum ground clearance of your machine.
The ramp should be long enough that the angles between the truck or trailer do not
cause the machine components to catch when moving from ramp to truck or trailer. If
loading on or near a slope, position the truck or trailer on the down side of the slope and
the ramps should extend up the slope. This will minimize the ramp angle. The trailer or
truck should be parked as level as possible to facilitate smooth loading of the machine.
Avoid sudden acceleration and deceleration of the unit when loading and unloading the
unit to avoid the machine tipping backward.
Also we can use crane or other equipment to hosit tractor from earth to trailer.
5.3..4TransportingtheMachine
Use a heavy duty trailer or truck to transport the machine. Make sure the trailer or truck
has all of the necessary lighting and markings as required by law.
When transporting the machine, make sure the three point linkage is raised, the park
brake is applied, the wheels have been blocked, the machine has been securely fastened
by cables, chains or ropes, and the trailer has been secured to the towing vehicle with
safety chains.
