10. TRANSPORTING/STORAGE
Transporting
Gasoline is flammable and explosive under certain condition. Do not smoke
or allow flames or sparks in the area.
CAUTION:
If the tiller has been used, allow it cool for at least 15 minutes before loading
it on the transport vehicle. A hot engine and exhaust system can burn you
and can ignite some material.
• Take care not to drop or strike the tiller when transporting.
• Use a vehicle (e.g. truck, etc.) that satisfies the size, weight and other
requirements of the tiller to transport.
Loading:
1. Raise the front wheel to the uppermost position (see page 25).
2. Load the tiller on the transport vehicle and keep it level on the bed.
Use a loading board whenever you load and unload the tiller onto/from
the transport vehicle. Walk slowly on the loading board, or you can fall
down from the loading board.
• Park the transport vehicle (e.g. truck, etc.) on a firm level surface and load/
unload the tiller by using a loading board. Take care not to fall down from the
loading board.
• Use a strong loading board that can support the weight of the tiller and
attachment and long enough so that the tilt angle of the tiller can be 15°
(26 %) or less. Note that the loading board must be equipped with the non-
slip and the hooks for secure attachment to the vehicle, and it must be wider
than the tread of the tiller. (Guideline: Length of the loading board should be
4 times or more as long as the height of the bed of the vehicle.)
15° (26 %) MAX
(4 times or more as long as
the height of the bed)
