Manual: MI-AFB506-149-00-GB
3.4 ASSEMBLY OPERATIONS
Assemble the tires in the suitable seats.
3.5 TRANSPORT ON TRAILER
Machine is suitable for road towing in the job site at max. speed of 30 km/h – 18,6 mph.
PROHIBITION: machine is not suitable for public road towing.
Possible displacements on trailer in the working site must be carried out by a connection to the towing
unit by means of the towing eye on the drawbar.
The used towing unit must be homologated for towing trailers with mass and dimensions as per the
described machine.
The connection to the towing unit has to be carried out only by means of the towing eye on the
drawbar (table 2, pos. 12).
Before transport operation, lift and block in releasing position the rear supporting point (table 2, pos. 11)
and the front plough (table 2, pos. 14) acting on the suitable lever (table 1, pos. 19) and inserting the
safety pin (table 2, pos. 13) (NOTE: this operation has to be effectuated with running engine).
Check the inflation pressure of tires (6 bars – 87 psi).
During machine transport on trailer operations, nobody must stay in the machine itself.
ATTENTION: dangerous situations during towing if the tires inflation pressure and the speed
limits are not respected may happen.
When transporting on truck or trailer, verify if the machine has been fixed on the platform of the
transporting unit with nailed wedges and/or metal brackets and/or tie rods.
3.6 POSITIONING AND ANCHORING
Positioning and anchoring of the machine have to be carried out only by trained personnel, verifying if
the ground grants the foreseen stability, support and anchoring.
The machine has to be placed in a distance from the first pole or trestle for the rope passage (or
conductor) included between 2 and 4 times the height h of the pole itself (see diagram here below).
It is possible to use the machine at a distance from the pole included between 1 and 2 times the height
of the pole itself. In this case, the anchorage described thereafter must be over dimensioned of 125%
compared to the reported data and some moorings must be provided on the front side of the machine.
PROHIBITION: when the distance between the machine and the pole is lower than the
height of the pole itself, the machine cannot be used.
