Unloading
1. Unsecure the unit.
2. Release the locking pin and pull the Lifting Arm out
until the locking pin engages the hole in the end of
the Lifting Arm.
3. Roll the unit back until the rear wheels are off the
edge of the tailgate or vehicle bed.
4. Pull downward on the Lifting Arm, allowing the unit
to slide on the loader. As the unit stops sliding on
the loader, it will pivot on the loader to an upright
position. Gradually counterbalance the unit’s weight
by applying an upward force on the Lifting Arm.
This allows the unit to settle gently on the wheels,
avoiding undue impact on the unit.
5. Return the Lifting Arm to the stored position, making
sure the locking pin engages the Lifting Arm.

Loading
Follow instructions for "tiltback" on page 3-10 to lower
the machine for transportation.
Unit may be loaded onto a trailer or flatbed truck by
forklift. Lift machine onto trailer or flatbed truck only
by using forklift pockets found on the Tilt Back Frame
(fig. 3-7).
When using a winch to load onto tilt-bed, attach winch
cable to winch point (fig. 3-7). Winch slowly.
Securing
Secure unit to the trailer or flatbed truck with chains/
straps sufficient to keep the machine from moving during
transportation. Use tie-down points (fig. 3-6) to attach
chains/straps to unit. Lock casters in forward position and
set caster brakes.
