(closed) position.
9. Turn the key to OFF and remove from the key switch.
10. Close the cab window and door.
• Never turn the battery disconnect switch to OFF
while the engine is running. This can damage the
electrical system or cause the machine to
operate improperly.

for the engine control module (ECM) to complete
its shutdown before turning the battery
disconnect switch to OFF.
Failure to follow this notice could cause damage
to the machine or cause it to operate improperly.
11. Turn the battery disconnect switch to OFF.
12. Lock all doors, filler cap, and hood. See “Doors, Filler

Securing the Machine
To avoid damage to the machine during
transportation:
• Lower the radio antenna and position the mirror
inward towards the cab.
• Secure any removed parts to the trailer.
• Put a wood block between the bucket cylinder
and the trailer floor to help prevent damage to the
bucket cylinder.
• Secure chains and wire ropes to the machine
frame.
• Prevent chains and wire ropes from crossing or
pressing against the hydraulic lines or hoses that
could result in damage and leaks.

When the machine has been loaded, follow these
procedures to tie it down:
1. Prevent machine movement during transportation by
placing chocks (1) at both ends of the tracks.
2. Secure the machine firmly in place with chains or
wire ropes to prevent it from sliding.
Unloading the Machine
• Use extreme care when the machine drives over
the joint area between the trailer and the ramps.
• Avoid damage caused by unexpected movement
of the work equipment.
• Maintain the boom-arm between an angle of 90°
and 110°.
• Unloading the machine with the arm retracted
may cause damage to the machine.
1. Always load/unload the machine on firm, level
ground and keep the machine a safe distance away
from roads.

2. Park the trailer properly and place chocks (2) behind
the trailer wheels. Place the ramps between the
trailer and the machine. Adjust the distance between
ramps to match the distance between the tracks.
3. Make sure the loading ramps have adequate width,
length, thickness, and strength. The maximum angle
of the ramps is 15° (1).
4. Remove the chains and wire ropes that secure the
machine.
