TRANSPORTATION OPERATION
196 PW160-7H VEAM390100
When loading or unloading, always use ramps or a platform and
carry out the operations as follows.
1. Properly apply the brakes on the trailer and insert blocks(2)
beneath the tyres to ensure that it does not move. Then fix
the ramps in line with the centres of the trailer and the
machine. Be sure that the two sides are at the same level as
one another.
Make the angle of the ramps (3) a maximum of 15°.
Set the distance between the ramps (A) to match the centre of the
wheels.
2. Set the travel speed switch to the Lo position.
For details, see "HIGH/LOW SPEED SELECTOR SWITCH
(93)"
3. Turn the auto-deceleration switch OFF, and return the fuel
control dial (9) to reduce the engine speed.
For details, see "AUTO-DECELERATION SWITCH (97)"
4. Turn the swing lock switch (12) ON to apply the swing lock.
5. Set in the direction of the ramps, lower the work equipment as
far as possible without letting it hit the trailer, then travel
slowly to load or unload the machine.
When on the ramps, do not operate any lever other than the travel
lever.
6. Load the machine correctly in the specified position on the
trailer.
EMARK
