4.2.2 Loading of the machine by means of a platform
• Connect the machine to a tractor to load it (*).
• Make sure the PTO (540 rpm) is engaged and active.
• Bring the machine and the transport vehicle close to the platform.
• Align the rear end of the transport vehicle with the platform.
• Secure the wheels of the transport vehicle with wheel chocks.
ATTENTION
Before loading, make sure that there are no obstacles on the same platform
that could get in the way.
• Start the tractor to which the machine is connected and align it with
the transport vehicle, positioning the rear part of the machine facing
the platform.
• Translate at low speed over the platform, avoiding sudden movements
and acceleration.
DANGER
Have the operator on the ground assist you by signaling when to stop tractor
travel to avoid incorrectly positioning yourself on the platform.
