Transportation
24.1 General
Never lift the machine with a crane.
The transport vehicle must be parked on a level surface.
The transport vehicle must be secured to prevent rolling while the machine is being loaded.
Be sure the transport vehicle capacity, loading surfaces and chains or straps are sufficient to
withstand the machine weight. See the Data Panel on the machine for the machine weight or
the Specification section on the ECC.
Towing the machine is not recommended. If the machine must be towed due to failure on track, do
not exceed 6 mph.
24.2 Loading
Do not drive the machine on a slope that exceeds the slope rating. See the OEM Operating
Instructions.
If the slope of the transport vehicle bed exceeds the maximum slope rating, the machine must
not be loaded and a suitable transport vehicle must be obtained.
After the machine is loaded:

Ensure that the rear rail gear remains raised after loading. Only the bogie wheels and the
crawlers must be contacting the deck of the transport vehicle.
