3.4
Transport
Observe all applicable laws and regulations when transporting
the machine. Be careful to ensure safety.
3.4.1
Transporting procedure
As a basic rule, always transport the machine on a trailer.
Select a trailer that is suitable for the weight and dimensions
specified in 6.1 “Technical data” (6-2).
Note that the specifications for the weights and dimensions for
transport vary according to the type of tyre and the type of
bucket.
Ensure steady positioning
See “Ensure steady positioning (2-36)”.
3.4.2
Loading the machine
WARNING
When loading or unloading the machine, run the engine at
low speed. Drive and work slowly.
Park the trailer on firm and level ground for loading and
unloading the machine. Keep a sufficient distance from the
road shoulder.
Use ramps of ample width, length, thickness, and strength.
Install the ramps with an inclination of less than 15°. When
using an embankment, compact the soil thoroughly and
make sure that the slope face does not collapse.
Remove the mud stuck to the undercarriage to prevent the
machine from slipping to the side on the ramps. In addition,
remove any water, snow, ice, grease, or oil from the ramps.
Never use the steering on the ramps. There is a risk that the
machine may tip over. If it is necessary to change direction,
return to the ground surface or the trailer platform, correct
the direction, and start again.
The position of the centre of gravity of the machine will
change suddenly at the transition between the ramp and the
trailer. There is risk of the machine losing its balance.
Always drive slowly over this point.
When loading or unloading, always use ramps or a platform.
Proceed as follows:
