Loading/unloading and transport of the machine
1. Safety rules for shipment of the machine
1) Run the engine at a low speed, and operate the machine slowly when loading/unloading.
2) Do not load/unload the machine during automatic warm-up operation.
3) If the automatic warm-up operation is cancelled during the loading/unloading operation,
the speed will suddenly change.
4) When loading/unloading the machine, it is necessary to choose a solid and flat ground.
Maintain a safe distance from the edge of the road.
5) To use a ramp with sufficient width, length, thickness and strength, the width of the slab is
equal to 1.2 to 1.5 times of the track width. To avoid any accidents, it is recommended that
the loading/unloading slope should be less than 15°, or the length of the slope should be
greater than 3.5 times the height. When soil slope is used, it is necessary to completely
compact the soil and take measures to prevent slope collapse.
6) To prevent the machine from slipping on the ramp, remove all soil and dirt from the tracks
before starting. Ensure that the surface of the ramp is clean and free from water, snow, ice,
grease, or oil.
7) Do not correct steering on a ramp, as there is a risk of the machine tipping over. If it is
necessary to turn, drive out of the ramp to correct the direction, and then enter the ramp
again.
8) Do not use working devices for loading and unloading operations, this is dangerous.
9) When on a slope, do not operate any joystick other than the traveling joystick.
10) At the junction between the ramp and the transportation vehicle, the center of gravity of
the machine will suddenly change, posing a risk of the machine losing its balance. Therefore,
travel slowly when crossing this area.
11) When rotating the upper structure on a transport vehicle, the transport vehicle is
unstable. Therefore, it is necessary to retract the attachment and slowly rotate it.
12) Whether getting on or off the vehicle, the wheels of the transportation vehicle should be
wedged.
13) Keep the excavator in a fixed position with a wooden wedge on the transportation
vehicle during transportation. Tie the excavator to the transport vehicle with a rope.
14) Before the work or operation is completed, the driver should first lift the left control box to
cut off the source of the pilot control oil line and avoid misoperation of the machine due to
errors or unintentional touch with the joystick.
