(minimum lifting capacity of 3000 daN / 6600 lbs. at a distance of 0.60 m / 2’ from the heel of the
machine forks or 1500 daN / 3300 lbs. at 1.20 m / 3’11”)
Cautiously drive the forks underneath the
cutterbar.
Using a textile sling, moor the cutterbar to the
heels of the lifting device forks.
Note : when the sling is tensioned, the ma-
chine forks must at least be driven through
100 mm/4” underneath the cutterbar.
Slowly reverse the fork lift truck until the
cutterbar rests on the forks.
Place two approx. 400 mm (16”) high wedges
where the cutterbar will rest once tipped over
entirely.
Keep all people clear from the load zone.
Slowly lower the forks while progressively re-
versing the truck loader until the machine
wheels rest on the ground.
Slowly lower the forks while progressively re-
versing the fork lift truck until the cutterbar
