ered failures:

3.7.3 REMOVING THE MACHINE
WARNING
q
When removing the machine, use a metal cable suitable for
the weight of the machine to be removed.
q
Do not apply sudden loads to the cable.
When the machine is stuck in mud and cannot get out with its own
power, or in case of failure, before removing it pass wire cables
around the central part of the undercarriage, as shown in the dia-
gram on the right.
Position wooden blocks between the wire cables and the machine
body, in order to prevent the cables from damaging the body it-
self.
