8. Moving:
A. Manual Steering:
The conveyor is manually steered and moved
in normal conditions. To assist in the moving
process, the front wheels are designed to be
used for steering. To use this system, follow
this procedure:
a. Install the manual steering extension bar
in its stub holder.
b. Remove the steering axle lock pin and
place in its holder.
c. Use the extension arm to turn the wheels
to the desired position.
d. After the conveyor has been moved to its
new position, straighten the wheels and
install the lock pin through the steering
linkage.
e. Remove steering extension bar and place
in its holder and secure with pin.
f. Place chocks in front of and behind the
hopper end tires to prevent machine
movement.
g. Secure to the adjacent pieces of
equipment.
B. Hydraulic Steering (Optional):
An optional hydraulic steering system is avail-
able and is normally used in conjunction
with a traction drive. Use the hydraulic valve
to turn the wheels as required for the move.
Disconnect the steering cylinder before in-
stalling the towing tongue.
C. Traction Drive (Optional):
An optional hydraulic traction drive is avail-
able for moving the machine. It can only be
utilized when the conveyor is equipped with
an optional hydraulic system. Use the hydrau-
lic valves to direct the ow of hydraulic oil to
move the conveyor in the direction desired.
Disengage the tractive drive before towing.
