5.2_LOADING BY CRANE
WARNING! Before raising the machine make sure that it does not contain any bales.
To raise the machine from the ground to the loading level, if there are no loading ramps available, use a crane
of sufficient capacity; make sure that you have a crane and a load equalising arm of suitable capacity for
raising the machine

.
Use of all four points of attachment for correct safe loading is compulsory.
IMPORTANT!
The four attachment points for raising the machine are clearly visible and marked with
special adhesives code B07500216.
Attach the machine only at the four points indicated by the adhesive signs to avoid
damage.
n°.4
MASCHIO FIENAGIONE declines all liability arising from damage to the round baler caused by
incorrect attachment for lifting.
Raise the machine with extreme care and move it slowly, without jerking, onto the lorry or railway car.
WARNING! Raising and transporting the machine can be very dangerous if not done with the
greatest of care, therefore:
Make sure that the means available are in good working order and suitable for the load.
Clear and cordon off the area in which transferral is to take place.
Make sure that the area in which you are working has been cleared and there is an escape
route, i.e. sufficient space to move out of the way quickly should the load fall.
Keep onlookers at a distance.
Do not touch suspended loads and remain at a safe distance.
During transport the loads must not be raised more than 20 centimetres above the ground.
CAUTION! The level on which it is intended to load the machine must be perfectly flat to avoid
possible shifting of the load.
Once the machine has been loaded on the lorry or railway car it is necessary to secure it to the surface on
which it stands with cables or chains using the same attachment points and anchoring points located on the
same surface and to block the wheels with the chocks.
CAUTION! Make sure that there are no parts of the machine protruding beyond the maximum
overall dimensions permitted by the transport.
After transport and before detaching the machine from all its attachments, make sure that its state and position
do not constitute a danger.
Then remove the packing and proceed with unloading using the same equipment, methods, attention and care
as in the loading operations.
