Procedures for Loading, Transporting, and
Unloading Battery Burnisher
DANGER:
The machine is very heavy, so be very careful when loading,
transporting, and unloading the machine. Use at least two
people to load or unload the machine.
• Loading Procedur
e Using a Ramp
a) It is not recommended that the battery burnisher be loaded using a ramp with
an incline of more than 7 degrees. The machine is not self-propelled and
therefore it is not able to assist itself up a ramp. It is too heavy to manually
push up a steep incline.
b) If you must load with a ramp, the incline must be no more than 7 degrees. (This
would permit a height of no more than one foot for an 8-foot ramp).
c) Ramp must be secured to vehicle, and be clean and dry.
d) Machine must be pushed or pulled straight up the ramp and never at an angle.
• Loading Procedure Using a Lift Gate
a) Lift gate must have ample capacity to lift the burnisher.
b) Wheels must be firmly chocked to prevent burnisher from rolling off the lift gate.
• Securing Battery Burnisher
a) Burnisher must be secured, so that it will not roll or turn over. Use chocks and
tie downs to secure.
b) Please be aware that the battery burnisher is very heavy, and that a metal
bulkhead in a van may not contain equipment in the event of an accident. The
equipment in a van can be more dangerous than the accident itself.
• Unloading Procedure Using a Ramp
a) Ramp must be long enough so that removal can be controlled. Use same ramp
incline restrictions as used for loading burnisher.
b) Ramp must be secured to vehicle, and be clean and dry.
c) Machine must be taken straight down the ramp and never at an angle.
d) Do not let machine run over you or anyone else as it comes off ramp.
