(e) Load the Crane.
1 Use the reverse gear if you back the equipment onto the trailer. Use the
forward gear if you move forward onto the trailer.
2 If the crane has a “4-wheel drive” mode, use the low range to engage it.
3 To move the crane onto the trailer, apply the “service brake” and then turn the
“park brake switch” to OFF. Move the transmission “shift lever” to the F1
position. Slowly release the “service brake”. Use the “throttle pedal” to
increase speed. When you move up the ramp, keep the speed of the crane
slow. Use the steering-wheel to control the direction of the front tires. Push the
“service brake” to stop.
4 When the crane is in position, move the front tires to the middle position.
Move the transmission “shift lever” to the neutral position. Apply the “park
brake” and release the “service brake”. Turn the engine to OFF.
(f) Secure the Crane.
To prevent the crane from movements, make sure that the tires are “chocked”
and attach the chains.
(g) Unload the Crane.
To unload the crane, do the “Load the Crane” task in the opposite sequence.
