Moving a disabled machine
WARNING
Misuse hazard!
Towing is a delicate maneuver that is always carried out at the risk of the user. The manufacturer's
warranty does not apply to incidents or accidents that occur during towing. Where possible, carry out
the repairs at the site.
Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.
W0286A
DANGER
Loss of control hazard!
Make sure you use a towing vehicle with adequate weight. Towing with an underweight vehicle could
cause a loss of control during transport or braking. Calculate the minimum towing vehicle weight
required as instructed in this manual.
Failure to comply will result in death or serious injury.
D0049A
Engine stalls while traveling
The operator can apply the brakes by pressing the pedal
for four or five applications until the accumulator is dis-
charged. The operator must limit the use of the brakes
in this situation. If the brakes cannot be applied by the
pedal, apply the parking brake.
The steering effort increases when the hydraulic system
loses power. If the engine stalls while traveling, park the
loader in a safe position and find the problem.
Engine or hydraulic failure
If your machine is disabled, you must judge if the machine
can be moved without further damage. If possible, repair
the machine at the job location.
If you cannot repair the machine at the job location and
if you have a transport trailer, park the trailer as close as
possible to the machine.
Never tow the machine from the front
Attach a rigid draw-bar to the machine.
NOTICE: make certain the towing machine has adequate
brake capacity to safely stop both machines.
