The machine can slip or fall from a ramp or trailer. Make sure the ramp and trailer are not slippery.

Make sure to check the total weight, length, width and height of the machine to be transported. Refer to Chapter 8.
Make sure to use a trailer with a rated capacity and dimensions sufficient to transport the machine. If a rear loading
type trailer is used for road transport, make sure that ramps are available to climb onto the trailer bed. Use ramps
which have sufficient width, length, thickness and strength. The ramp slope should be
15°
or less.
Investigate beforehand the conditions of the road to be traveled, weight and size limits, and special local traffic regu-
lations. Obtain any permits required from proper government agencies for machine transportation.
Trailer setup
1. Position the trailer on firm and level ground.
2. Put blocks to the tires of the trailer to prevent trailer
from moving.
3. If a rear loading type trailer is used for road transport,
prepare the loading ramps. If the ramps are included
in the trailer frame, lower them to the ground. If the
ramps are external to the trailer, match them to the
rear edge of the trailer avoiding any bump between
trailer bed and external ramps.
