Make sure you are in compliance with all local regulations regarding transporting equipment on
public roads and highways.
•
Before starting, make sure hydraulic system is not leaking, hydraulic hoses and wiring are in
good condition, and that the platform and engine area are free of debris.

Make sure there is plenty of ventilation. The exhaust fumes from the internal combustion
engine may cause asphyxiation.

Hitch weight of A50 trailer is approximately 100 lbs (45 kg) plus 10% of payload [200 lbs (91 kg
plus 12% of payload for A100 trailer]. Therefore, use only a towing vehicle with adequate hitch
and brakes to stop the vehicle coupled with the machine and payload.
•
On machines equipped with an internal combustion engine, make sure that muffler area is kept
clean of combustible material and that outlet of muffler is not positioned such that exhaust is
directed towards materials that could combust. Otherwise, fire may result.
•
Review safety instructions with all personnel annually.
•
Do not make bodily contact with hot surfaces on the engine or muffler. Serious injury could
result.

moving parts to stop. Be sure to let engine and hydraulic system cool to a safe temperature
before servicing, adjusting or repairing any of these components. Disconnect the spark plug
lead and ground it to ensure the engine does not start unexpectedly.
