NOTICE
q Stow the car radio antenna. In addition, remove the mirrors. Tie the removed parts securely to the
trailer.
q To prevent damage to the bucket cylinder during transportation, fit a wooden block at one end of the
bucket cylinder to prevent it from touching the floor.
Load the machine onto a trailer as follows:
1. Extend the bucket and arm cylinders fully, then lower the
boom slowly.
2. Stop the engine, then remove the key from the starting
switch.
3. Secure control levers with the safety lock lever.
4. After removing the outer element, cover with a clean cloth
or tape to prevent dirt or dust from sticking to the inner ele-
ment.
5. Place blocks under both ends of the tracks to prevent the
machine from moving during transportation, and secure the
machine with chains or wire rope of suitable strength.
Be particulary careful to secure the machine in position so
it does not slip to the side.
