➤ The maximum permissible load for the towing vehicle coupling and the maximum coupling load
given for the machine must not be exceeded.
➤ Avoid causing a shift in the centre of gravity by an excessive or incorrectly distributed load.
➤ Do not tow in such a way as to impose excessive stress on the machine or chassis.
➤ Adjust towing speed to accommodate ground and weather conditions. This applies particularly
to unpaved roads and when taking curves.
➤ The towbar must be parallel with the ground otherwise towing instability can develop, resulting
in damage to the machine and/or towing vehicle.
➤ Before moving the machine, make sure any security devices (e.g. anti-theft chain) are re‐
leased.
Transport as trailer on public roads
➤ Do not tow machines without service brake on public roads.
➤ Do not tow machines without illumination and signaling equipment on public roads.
➤ Ensure all running gear, including chassis, wheels, brakes, signalling and lighting, is in safe
condition.
➤ The local laws and regulations regarding the use of public roads must be observed.
Transporting with a crane
Non-compliance with the safety regulations for load suspension and hoisting equipment may cause
severe accidents during lifting and moving the machine with cranes.
➤ Do not enter the danger zone while the machine is being lifted.
➤ Never lift and move the machine over people or occupied buildings.
➤ Avoid extreme weight shifting caused by additional loads or additions (tilting).
➤ Do not exceed the lifting capacity on the machine's lifting point (lifting eye).
➤ Only the designated lifting point should be used to attach lifting gear and under no circumstan‐
ces are handles, tow-bar or other components to be used.
➤ Use only hooks and shackles that comply with local safety regulations
➤ Do not attach cables, chains or ropes directly to the machine's lifting eye.
➤ Do not manipulate the crane suspension system, in particular the holding points of the crane
lifting eye.
➤ If screwed crane fixings had to be removed, please use only new self-locking nuts when instal‐
ling.
➤ Avoid jerking when lifting, as this may damage components.
➤ Loads must be slowly lifted and carefully set down.
➤ Never allow the load to hang from the crane longer than necessary.
The following are forbidden:
■ Air transport of the machine by slinging beneath a helicopter.
■ Dropping the machine by parachute.
