1.11
Additionally, support the drawbar with a wooden block of such a height that the slurry tanker
frame is positioned parallel to the load platform. Chocks, wooden blocks or other objects
without sharp edges should be placed under the wheels of the slurry tanker to prevent it from
rolling. Wheel blocks must be nailed to the load platform planks of the vehicle or secured in
another manner preventing their movement.
Use certified and technically reliable securing measures. Worn straps, cracked securing
catches, bent or corroded hooks as well as other damage may disqualify use of the given
element from use. Carefully read the information stated in the Operator's Manual for the
given securing measure. The number of securing elements (cables, straps, chains and stays
etc.) and the force necessary for their tensioning depends on a number of things, including
weight of the machine, the construction of vehicle carrying it, speed of travel and other
conditions. For this reason it is impossible to define the securing plan precisely.
A correctly secured machine does not change its position with regard to the transport in
vehicle. The securing elements must be selected according to the guidelines of the
Manufacturer of these elements. In case of doubt apply a greater number of securing straps
in order to immobilise the machine. If necessary, sharp edges of slurry tanker should be
protected at the same time protecting the securing straps from breaking during transport.
DANGER
Incorrect application of securing measures may cause an accident.
During reloading work, particular care should be taken not to damage parts of the machine's
fittings or the lacquer coating. The tare weight of the slurry tanker is given in table (3.1).
IMPORTANT!
When being road transported on a motor vehicle the slurry tanker must be
mounted on the vehicle's platform in accordance with the transport safety
requirements and the regulations.
Driver of the vehicle should be particularly careful during travel. This is due to
the vehicle's centre of gravity shifting upwards when loaded with the machine.
Use only certified and technically reliable securing measures. Carefully read
the manufacturer's instructions for the securing measures.
