Put the machine in the “travelling posture” and always use ramp boards or forwarding blocks when
loading/unloading the machine. Follow the procedure below.
5.1.1 LOADING
1. Select a level and firm road surface for loading the machine.
In addition, keep enough distance from the roadside.
2. Brake the trailer securely. Place wheel blocks next to the
wheels of the trailer to secure the trailer.
3. Ramp boards must be suitably aligned so that the machine
rests in the centre of the trailer.
• Set the right and left ramp boards in paralell at the same
distance for the right and left with respect to the center of
the trailer.
• The installation angle of the ramp boards must be 15
degrees or less.
•
Securely hang the hooks of the ramp boards on the hooks
of the trailer.
•
If the ramp boards are bent by the machine weight, place
a block such as lumber under the ramp boards to prevent
bending.
4. Start the engine.
Warm up the engine enough in cold climate.
5. Place the lock lever at the free position (F).
6. Turn the travelling speed range to low speed travelling (1st
speed).
To change the travelling speed range, press the
travelling 1st speed/2nd speed selector switch.
7. Set the engine speed to low speed with the fuel adjustment
dial.
