• Remove any dirt, snow or ice from the loading ramps and transport platform, to pre-
vent slipping.

the Machine on a Transport Vehicle” on page 113 to prevent unintentional movement.
Safety Decals
The machine has decals that provide safety information and precautions around the
machine. These decals must be kept legible. If missing or illegible, they must be replaced
promptly. Replacements can be obtained from your dealer. If there is a decal on a part that
is replaced, be sure that the decal is applied to the replacement part.
New Decal Application
Surfaces must be free of dirt, dust, grease and foreign material before applying the decal.
Remove the smaller portion of the decal backing paper and apply the exposed adhesive to
the clean surface, maintaining proper position and alignment. Peel the rest of the backing
paper and apply hand pressure to smooth out the decal surface. Refer to the following
pages for proper decal location.
