Transport
When loading or transporting machines ensure that the specified lifting and tie down points are
used.
When loading or transporting machines ensure that the towing vehicle, its size, weight, towing
hitch and electrical supply are all suitable to provide safe and stable towing at speeds either,
up to the legal maximum for the country in which it is being towed or, as specified for the
machine model if lower than the legal maximum. Do not exceed gross vehicle weight rating.
Before towing the machine, ensure that:
• the tires and towing hitch are in a serviceable condition.
• the canopy is secure.
• all ancillary equipment is stored in a safe and secure manner.
• the brakes and lights are functioning correctly and meet necessary road traffic
requirements.
• break-away cables/safety chains are connected to the towing vehicle.
The machine must be towed in a level attitude in order to maintain correct handling, braking
and lighting functions. This can be achieved by correct selection and adjustment of the vehicle
towing hitch and, on variable height running gear, adjustment of the drawbar.
1. Make sure wheels, tires and tow bar connectors are in safe operating condition
and tow bar is properly connected before towing.
2. When parking always use the handbrake and, if necessary, suitable wheel
chocks.
Steps for determining correct load limit -
1. Locate the statement “The weight of cargo should never exceed xxx kg or xxx
lbs” on your vehicle’s placard.
2. This figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity.
3. Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the
vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage
load capacity.
Safety chains/connections and their adjustment where fitted:
Ensure that the breakaway cable is securely coupled to the trailer and also to a substantial
point on the towing vehicle.
Ensure that the cable length is as short as possible, while still allowing enough slackness for
the trailer to articulate without the handbrake being applied.
Loop the chains onto the towing vehicle using the towing vehicle hitch as an anchorage point,
or any other point of similar strength.
Ensure that the effective chain length is as short as possible while still allowing normal
articulation of the trailer and effective operation of the breakaway cable.
