3.22 Recovery, loading, and transporting
Machines are only to be loaded onto recovery vehicles when adequate towing
equipment used.
Keep the center of gravity of the machine as low as possible and mark it for
the freight forwarder.
Use the attachment points specified by the manufacturer.
For loading and transportation, secure the machine and the required auxiliary
devices against unintended movements.
Use undamaged transport restraint corresponding to the loads.
Clean the running gear and chassis of the machine to remove slurry, snow and
ice, so that the loading ramp can be approached without the risk of slipping.
When driving onto the transport equipment, guides are to be employed. Make
sure there are no other persons in the machine’s danger zone.
For transport by truck, flat-bed trailer or railway, reliably secure all moving
parts (place the dipper, support plates and dozer blade on the ground) as well
as the machine with wedges and by fastening it at the lashing points.
Before setting off, the route to be taken must be examined. The roads must
be wide enough, entrances and passages under bridges must be large
enough, and roads and bridges must have sufficient carrying capacity.
Use and appropriate flat-bed trailer as per the machine data (dimensions,
weight).
Keep the loading equipment as low as possible.
Only use those loading points identified in the operating instructions.
Use the appropriate loading points on the transporter to match the expected
forces.
Ensure appropriate speed when moving/in transit.
When driving onto the transport ramp, use guides. Make sure there are no
other persons in the machine’s danger zone.
Ensure the uppercarriage is aligned with the undercarriage. Do not allow
swaying during travel.
Before transporting the machine, ensure that the uppercarriage and
undercarriage are aligned.
Ensure the dozer blade and full floating axle are facing forwards before
driving and steering.
Check the direction of travel by careful operation at a low engine speed.
Keep any third parties clear of the machine’s danger zone.
