Transport and Lifting Instructions
Transport Instructions
Observe and Obey:
Be sure the vehicle capacity and loading
surfaces are sufficient to support the machine
weight. See the serial plate for the machine
weight.
The transport vehicle must be parked on a
level surface.
Remove the load from the forks, boom or load
platform before loading for transport.
The transport vehicle must be secured to
prevent rolling while the machine is being
loaded.
The machine must be securely fastened to the
transport vehicle.
Lifting Instructions
The number of people required to load and unload
a machine is dependent on a number of factors,
including but not limited to:
•
the physical condition, strength and disabilities
or prior injuries of the people involved
•
the vertical and horizontal distances the
machine has to be moved
•
the number of times the machine will be loaded
or unloaded
•
the stance, posture and grip used by the
people involved
•
the lifting techniques used
•
the site conditions and weather in which the
activity is being performed (i.e., slippery, icy,
raining)
The appropriate number of people and proper
lifting techniques must be used to prevent physical
injury.
