Before raising or lowering the TMA the operator should check that the area around the TMA is clear and
that personnel are not in or near the area.
C.
Before operation on the roadway, check all 1” diameter pins and bolts at the back

E.
For correct operation of the TMA in the deployed position (horizontal position), the TMA should be 12" ±
1” above the ground and horizontal to the roadway.
F.
The responsible agency for the support vehicle should check that the following specifications are met:
The support vehicle should weigh a minimum of 7,300 lbs (3,300 kg). If the support vehicle is ballasted,
the ballast should be properly anchored to the support vehicle frame to prevent movement during an
impact. The support vehicle should be equipped with proper operator safety equipment such as seat
