LIFTING PROCEDURE 3
CAUTION
When the machine is raised, check that there is no oil leakage from the hydraulic circuits.
When carrying out the lifting operation, please contact your Komatsu distributor.
Lifting work can be carried out only for machines with lifting marks. Before starting the lifting operation, stop the
machine in a horizontal place and do as follows.
1. Start the engine, make sure that the machine is horizontal,
then set the work equipment to the travel posture.
For details, see “MOVING THE MACHINE (3-77)“.
2. Check that the work equipment control lever is at the
HOLD position, then set the safety lock lever to the LOCK
position.
3. Stop the engine, check that the area around the operator's
compartment is safe, then lock with the safety bar so that
the front frame and rear frame do not articulate.
4. Fit the lifting equipment to the lifting hooks (marked by the
lifting mark) at the front of the front frame and the rear of
the rear frame.
For machines equipped with a rear full fender, remove the
rear full fender before carrying out the operation.
5. When the machine leaves the ground, stop for a moment
and wait for the machine to stabilize, then continue the lift-
ing operation slowly.
