Prerequisites
Engine shut down
Parking brake ON
Procedure
Follow the procedure below to tie down the machine.
1. Make sure that the transport vehicle is capable of handling the weight and size
of the machine. See Technical Data for dimensions and operating weight.
2. Lock the articulated steering joint (a).
3. Attach steel ropes or chains to each of the four tie down eyes (b) on the
machine (two per side) and the two tie down bars (c) on the front and rear of the
machine.
4. Attach the other end of the chains to an appropriate vehicle capable of handling
the weight of the machine.
Note: The transmission is normally braked when the diesel engine is off, or when
the hydraulic system is not functioning, unless there is a fault and/or the parking
brakes have been manually disabled.
NOTICE: Do not position ropes or chains across the machine frame or the articu-
lated joint when tying down the machine. Damage to the machine may occur.
NOTICE: Do not completely compress the shock mounts when tying down the
machine. Damage to the shock mounts may occur.

when transporting). Damage to the shock mounts may occur.
