OPERATION

TRANSPORTING A LOAD

WARNING

Transporting a load with the boom extended and the boom angle indicator arrow (D) reading more than 0 degrees could cause a roll over hazard.

WARNING

At no time should any load be suspended from the forks by use of chains, ropes, straps etc. If a load must be suspended the use of a truss (jib) boom is mandatory. Proper rigging procedures should always be followed.

The forks should always be tilted back slightly during trans- portation to ensure stability of the load.

D

The load should be kept as low to the ground as possible while traveling. Always move a loaded machine with the boom angle indicator (D) at 0 degrees or less.
