• See "Specifications 1.1 Specification List " in the Dimension for the dimensions and mass of
the machine.
• Select and use the ramp boards that satisfy the following conditions.
• Has the length that when placed, the angle from the
track is 15 degrees or less.
• Has the width no narrower than the rubber tracks.
• Has the thickness and strength that can fully withstand
the mass of the machine.
• Be sure to place the ramp boards perpendicular to the
truck box. Also, match the center of the each of the tracks
with the center of corresponding ramp board. Misguided
ramp boards and unmatched tracks may cause the
machine to slip off of the ramp boards and cause serious
accidents.
• Always put the machine in the “traveling posture” when loading/unloading the machine. See
“Operation 3.7 Machine Traveling Posture” for traveling posture.
• Always turn the auto-deceleration switch OFF (cancel). If the auto-deceleration switch is left
ON, the machine, when operated will move suddenly.
• Always set the travel speed selector switch to low speed (Lo), run the engine at low idling, and
operate the machine slowly when loading and unloading.
• Always load the machine by moving backward. Moving forward involves overturning hazard.
The operator must be on the back side of the truck.
• Always unload the machine by moving forward. Moving backward involves overturning
hazard. The operator must be on the back side of the truck.
• Loading/Unloading the machine involves danger. Be extremely careful.
• Select flat and solid ground for loading/unloading the machine. Keep sufficient distance from
the ground shoulders.
• Remove dirt around the crawlers to prevent side slip of the machine on the ramp boards.
Remove any materials on the loading ramps such as snow, ice, grease, and oil.
• Never change direction on the ramp boards. Go down from the ramp board, and then change
the direction.
• The center of gravity of the machine will change suddenly at the point between the ramps and
the trailer, and there is danger of the machine losing it’s balance. Travel slowly over this point.
• Always check that the sliding door of the cab is at the LOCK position, regrardless of whether
the door is open or closed. If the door is opend or closed when the machine is on the ramps or
on the trailer platform, there is danger that the operating effect for opening or closing the door
may suddenly change.
