3.7 SECURING AND
TRANSPORTING
There are three tie down points provided for
securing the Mini-Skid Loader while transporting.
One at the lower front and two at the rear. See Figs.
3.7A & 3.7B.
Be sure the trailer and/or truck is of adequate size and
capacity to safely transport your Mini-Skid Loader.
Measure the clearance height of the Mini-Skid
Loader and trailer or truck, and post it in the cab of
the truck.
Before loading the Mini-Skid Loader make sure the
ramps and parking surface are free of all oil, grease,
ice, etc. and of sufficient strength to support the
load.
Know the local rules and regulations, and make sure
your truck and trailer is equipped with the correct
safety equipment.
When loading a Mini-Skid Loader with an
attachment, always load the heavy end first.
Once the Mini-Skid Loader has been loaded, lower
the attachment to the floor and stop the engine.
Install chains at the front and rear tie down
locations, and securely attach to the transport
vehicle.
Note: Minimum 3/8 in. grade 40 chain is
required.
When transporting on a
road or highway during
the day or at night, be
sure that the trailer is
equipped with lights and
signs as required by law.
