OPERATION
TROUBLES AND ACTIONS
TOWING THE MACHINE
WARNING
Serious injury or death could result if a disabled machine is towed
incorrectly or if there is a mistake in the selection or inspection of the wire
rope.
Always check that the wire rope used for towing has ample strength for
the weight of the machine being towed.
Never use a wire rope which has cut strands (A), reduced diameter (B),
or kinks (C). There is danger that the rope may break during the towing
operation.
Always wear leather gloves when handling wire rope.
Never tow a machine on a slope.
During the towing operation, never stand between the towing machine
and the machine being towed.
Operate the machine slowly and be careful not to apply any sudden load
to the wire rope.
NOTICE
The maximum towing capacity for this machine is 197,100 N (20,100 kg).
Always carry out towing operations within the maximum towing capacity.
If the machine sinks in mud and cannot get out under its own
power, or if the drawbar pull of the excavator is being used to tow
a heavy object, use a wire rope as shown in the diagram on the
right.
Place pieces of wood between wire ropes and body to prevent
damage to ropes and body.
Hold the wire rope level and direct it straight to the track frame.
When towing a machine, travel at a speed of less than 1 km/h for
a distance of only a few meters to a place that is suitable for
carrying out repairs.
This is for use only in emergencies.
