CRANING THE SKID
STEER
If the skid steer is inoperative and located in an area
where it cannot be loaded onto a truck or trailer, the
unit may be craned to load the unit.
To crane the skid steer, only use chain or cable with
a rated capacity to handle the weight of the model
skid steer being craned. Refer to “Specifications” in
this manual for the operating weight of the model skid
steer being craned. Use three chains minimum of
3.66 m (12
′
) long to prevent sharp angles and
damage to the skid steer cab, boom, and lifting
chains.
