Transport holders
equipment having a higher lifting capacity than the weight of the mower shown on
the nameplate should be used to hoist the mower. This also concerns the lines and chains used
to lift the mower,
while placing the mower onto a transport vehicle non-involved persons must leave the vicinity,
transport belts, belt suspensions, ropes cannot be damaged. Whenever damages to these parts
are spotted replace these with new ones,
when mounting slings, chains, handles etc. always pay attention to setting the machine's center
of gravity properly (

to catch machines, pick ropes of adequate length, so that the angle between them is no greater
than 120°, and the angle between the strand and the vertical is no greater than 60°,
the mower should be immobilized on the loading platform of the transporting vehicle so that it
cannot move.

The person operating the hoist is responsible for maintaining a safe
environment during lifting of the mower.
