6 Recovery, loading, and transport
6.1 Towing the machine
The loading machine may only be towed in
exceptional circumstances, for example to
move the machine away from a dangerous
location for repairs. Damage and accidents
that occur when towing the machine do not
fall under the warranty obligation of the manu-
facturer.
Rods that are used for towing must have suf-
ficient tensile strength and be fastened to the
towing lug (146/1) provided for this purpose at
the front or back of the undercarriage.
The towing lugs have a maximum bearing pres-
sure of 250 kN.
Danger of injury due to uncon-
trollable machine
The following values must not be
exceeded when towing:
• Towing speed:
max. 5 km/h
• Towing distance: max. 10 km
• With the diesel engine turned off
and the parking brake released,
all machine brakes are out of op-
eration and the steering is not
ready for operation.
In an emergency: Administer first
aid, seek treatment from a doctor
Danger of injury due to machine
rolling away
• Before work on the parking brake
or underneath the machine in
general commences the machine
must be secured with chocks so
that it cannot roll away.
In an emergency: Administer first
aid, seek treatment from a doctor
Before the loading machine can be towed, the
parking brake must be released and the two
propshafts must be decoupled and tied up on
the axle sides.
