• Always use ramps of adequate strength. Be sure that the
ramps are wide, long, and thick enough to provide a safe
loading slope. Take suitable steps to prevent the ramps
from moving out of position or coming off.
(1) Chocks
(2) Ramp
(3) Width of ramps: Same width as tires
(4) Angle of ramp: Max. 15 °
(5) Block
• Be sure the ramp surface and the platform of trailer are
clean and free of grease, oil, ice, water and other loose materials. If any, remove them. Remove dirt around
the undercarriage of the machine. On a rainy day, in particular, be extremely careful since the ramp surface
is slippery.
• Run the engine at low idle and drive the machine slowly at low speed.
• Never correct your steering on the ramps. If necessary, drive off the ramps onto the ground, correct the di-
rection, then enter the ramps again.
• When loading or unloading to an embankment or platform, make sure that it has suitable width, strength,
and grade.
• For machines equipped with a cab, always lock the door after loading the machine. To prevent the door
from opening during transportation.
• When it is necessary to remove handrails and steps, take care not to lose removed handrails and steps.
Install the removed handrails and steps securely.
TOWING AND BEING TOWED
PRECAUTIONS FOR TOWING AND BEING TOWED
Always use the correct towing equipment and towing method. Any mistake in the selection of the wire rope or
drawbar or the method of towing a disabled machine and being towed may lead to serious personal injury or
death.
For towing, see “PRECAUTIONS FOR TOWING MACHINE (3-243)”.
• Always confirm that the wire rope or drawbar used for towing has ample strength for the weight of the ma-
chine being towed.
• Never use the wire rope which has cut strands (A), re-
duced diameter (B), or kinks (C). There is a danger that
the rope may break during the towing operation.
• Always wear leather gloves when handling the wire rope.
• Never tow a machine on a slope.
• During the towing operation, never stand between the tow-
ing machine and the machine being towed.
