Transporting
WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
1.
Be sure to reduce ground speed when turning; and,
leave enough clearance to keep the attachment from
making contact with obstacles such as buildings,
trees or fences.
2.
Select a safe ground travel speed when transporting
from one area to another.
3.
When traveling on public roadways, transport in such
a way that faster moving vehicles may pass you
safely. A slow moving vehicle sign should always be
properly displayed when traveling on public roads or
right-of ways.
4.
Decrease transport speed when traveling over rough
or hilly terrain.
5.
When transporting skid steer on a trailer:
•
Use towing vehicle and trailer of adequate
capacity.
•
Always drive up a ramp with heavy end uphill.
•
Engage skid steer park brake and remove ignition
switch key once it is loaded.
•
Secure Skid Steer Loader and attachment using
tie downs and chains.
