TRANSPORTATION
For transport the machine should be ‘folded’ into a position that is as compact as possible
within the confines of the tractor width. The cutting head should be placed into the vertical
position with the flails outwards ensuring sufficient clearance of the tractor wheel to avoid
possible contact or fouling during transportation.
WARNING
Never transport a machine with the Booms open -
Ensure Booms are in contact with each other at all times.
For machines with slewing capability, the arms should be slewed forwards towards the
tractor for transportation and the transport tap on the slew ram 'closed' to lock the ram.
This tap should only be 'opened' prior to, and during, operation of the machine.
