6.1 Transport of the excavator
For transport safety, the machine can be divided into several parts. Please contact ZOOMLION or
ZOOMLION dealer for details.
Usually a trailer matching the weight and size provided in the technical specifications is required for
transportation. Please note that the value of weight and transportation size provided in the technical
specifications will vary with different types of track shoes, arms or accessories. During transport, do comply
with the following provisions:
a). Study all the restrictions and local regulations on transport load, width and length; if necessary,
disassemble the working devices. Different working devices may be different in width, height and weight.
Therefore, the determining of the transport routes should take this point into account.
b). Before crossing the bridges or private lands, you should first check whether the structural strength is
strong enough to support the weight of the machine. On highway transport, request the authorities to do
inspections and follow their guidance.
Here are the specific steps of transport.
6.1.1 Loading and unloading of the machine
1. While performing the loading/unloading operations, turn the automatic idle button to OFF
position (canceled). If the automatic slow-down button is still at the ON position, the machine will
move suddenly.
2. When the machine is mounted on or unloaded from the trailer, run the machine at low speed
and do not operate the traveling speed selective switch.
3. Run the engine at low speed and operate the machine with low speed while loading/unloading.
4. Do not load/unload the machine during automatic warming-up operation.
5. Load/ unload the machine on solid and flat ground, and maintain a safe distance from the edges
of the road.
6. Use the ramp with adequate width, length, thickness and strength, and the loading/unloading
slope should be no more than 15 ° (Figure 6-1). When bulldozing slopes, the soil should be compacted
securely and measures should be taken to prevent slope collapse.
