Fasten the machine to the vehicle.
Clarke
recommends a strap over the top of the
machine and a strap to keep the machine from
rolling forward or backwards. If this is not done,
there is a possibility of the machine toppling
over. Three tie down points are provided on the
steel frame of the machine, for securing
machine (see figure 2a).
How to Remove the Machine From a Van or
Truck
1.
Make sure there are no obstructions in the area.
2. Make sure the unloading ramp is at least eight
(8) feet (2.5m) long and a minimum of 32"
(0.8m) wide, and strong enough to support the
machine.
3. Make sure the ramp is clean and dry.
4. Put the ramp in position.
5. Unfasten the machine.
WARNING:
The machine is heavy.
Make sure you use two able
persons to assist in moving
the machine down the
ramp.
6. On S17 model, get two people to pull machine
off ramp. It is recommended that the "S" model
be unloaded in the forward position.
7. On the L17 models only, turn the key switch
"ON" and press the green "ON" button.
8. Set the traverse center knob to the slowest
forward speed setting. Carefully and slowly,
drive the machine to the top of the ramp and
start down (L17 models only).
9. While pushing in the right or left forward switch
the machine will go forward (L17 models only).
See figure 2.
10. As the machine begins to travel down the ramp,
push in the forward switch to maintain a slow
downward speed (L17 models only).
