General Information

If it is necessary to build a ramp to unload the machine from a trailer, be certain to keep the ramp angle shallow
enough so no part of the undercarriage of the machine will strike or hang up on the ramp. Also block sufficiently to
support the weight of the machine, which at operating weight with water, fuel, lubricants and operator can be in
excess of 50,000 pounds, depending on the options on the machine.
CAUTION: If it is necessary to use creosoted timbers for a ramp, they can be slippery and
dangerous, use sand on them to prevent slippage.
Set brakes and block trailer wheels so it cannot move in either direction as the machine is being loaded or unloaded.
If unloading by crane, use a crane of at least 30 ton capacity.
