the machine.
q Never try to lift the machine in any posture other than the posture given in the procedure below.
There is danger that the machine may lose its balance.
q When lifting the machine,pay careful attention to the center of gravity to maintain the balance.
When lifting the machine, carry out the operation on flat ground as follows.
1. Start the engine and set the work equipment to the posture
shown in the diagram on the right (boom raised to maxi-
mum height, arm and bucket pulled in fully). Set with the
upper structure facing straight to the front. (Idler end)
2. Set safety lock lever (1) securely to LOCK position (L).
3. Stop the engine, check that there is nothing around the
operator's compartment, then get off the machine. Close
the cab door and front glass securely.
4. Install shackles to the hooks at the top of the counterweight
and boom, then fit wire rope.

are as shown in the diagram on the right.

6. When raising, check that the posture does not change
because of leakage of oil from the hydraulic circuit at the
boom cylinder head end.

machine is stable, raise it slowly.
