HOPPER SAFETY SUPPORT

WARNING!
Before performing any maintenance procedure under or near to the lifted hopper, fully lift the hopper with the
lever (54), then pull the handle (39) backwards to make sure that the hopper safety support (5) is in place. The
hopper safety support holds the hopper lifted to allow working under the hopper. Never rely on the machine's
hydraulic components to safely support the hopper.

JACKING THE MACHINE

WARNING!
Never work under a machine without safety stands or blocks to support the machine.
When jacking the machine, do so at designated locations (do not jack on the hopper) - see jacking locations (8).

MACHINE TRANSPORT

WARNING!
Before transporting the machine on an open truck or trailer, make sure that:
– All access doors are latched securely.
– The machine is tied down securely.
– The parking brake is engaged.

PUSHING/TOWING THE MACHINE

The machine hydraulic pump (44) is equipped with a screw that disengages the traction system. The system prevents damage to
the hydraulic system when the machine is being towed/pushed for short distances without using the motor.
To access the unlocking screw, open the battery compartment hood (1) by using the unlocking push-button (25) and locate the
hydraulic pump (44) in the front part of the motor (27).
Turn the socket head screw (A, Fig. 1) half turn counter-clockwise to disengage the hydrostatic lock between the motor and the
pump.
CAUTION!
The hydraulic pump can be damaged if the machine is towed when the screw is in the normal working position
(locked).
NOTE
If the screw is left in unlocking position, the hydraulic pump cannot drive the machine.
NOTE
Tow or push the machine no faster than a normal walking pace (1.8-2.8 mph (3-4.5 km/h)) and for short distances only.
If the machine is to be moved long distances the driving wheels need to be raised off the fl oor and placed on a suitable
transport dolly.
After pushing/towing the machine, turn the socket head screw half turn clockwise to reset the hydraulic functions.
