Loading Machine for Transport
TRANSPORTING
•
Use only transport machines that are in proper working
order and are approved for use on public roads.
•
When using ramps to load machine onto the transport
machine:
-
Do not exceed an incline of 18°.
-
Ramp width must be at least 1½ times the
width of the track.
-
Clean dirt, mud, ice and snow from the
ramps and tracks.
•
Use metal loading ramps with a slip-resistant surface.
NOTE:
The ends of the ramps should be beveled to
prevent damage to the rubber tracks (Figure 3-16).
•
Attach ramps securely to the transport machine to pre-
vent them from slipping off during loading.
•
Load the machine on solid, even ground.
•
When loading, apply the transport machine parking
brake and chock the wheels.
•
Determine the direction of the track movement (blade
facing forward) before moving the machine onto the
ramps.
•
After the machine is on the transport machine, lower the
dozer blade and the bucket onto the loading surface
(Figure 3-16). Turn off the engine.
•
Lock the cab.
•
Place chocks under machine tracks and secure machine
to prevent slipping, overturning and moving on the trans-
port machine.
•
Use the points on the excavator indicated by decals for
tie down.

the weight of the machine plus any attach-
ments.
