With the boom completely stowed, raise the jib
slightly, then use the Platform Level function to
lower the platform until the front of the platform
touches the trailer surface.
Route the tie-down strap as shown through the
width of the platform, over the toe boards of both
side entry points. Tighten securely but do not
over-tighten.
It may be necessary to turn the platform 90
degrees when loading two machines on the
same trailer. In this case, route the strap over the
toeboard and through the end of the platform as
shown.
Loading Two Machines
Two machines may be loaded onto a single trailer by rotating the turntable of each machine and
rotating the platforms as shown below.
• Extend the boom of each machine approximately 15 inches (38 cm).
• Arrange the machines as shown. The distance between the ends of the counterweights should
be 44 ft - 45 ft (13.4 m - 13.7 m).
• Secure the chassis of each machine as previously instructed on page 51.
• Engage the Rotation Lock of each machine as previously instructed on page 51, using one of
the side turntable locking holes.
