Preparing for Transportation

Use the following procedure to prepare the aerial platform
for transportation.
1. Remove any unnecessary tools, materials, or other
loose objects from the platform.
2. Close and latch all cowling doors.

By Crane

Secure the straps to chassis lifting/lugs only.
Know the approximate location of the center of gravity
before lifting the machine off the ground. Refer to Figure
7.
A
Danger
Lifting by Crane is for transport purposes only.
See Specifications for weight of machine and be
certain that the crane is of adequate capacity to lift
the machine.

By Truck

1. Maneuver the machine into transport position and
chock wheels.
2. Place a wood block under the tip end of the jib foot.
Lower the platform so the foot rests on the wood
block.

Ratchets, winches, and come-alongs can produce
enough force to damage machine components. Do
not over tighten the straps or chains when securing
the aerial platform to the transport vehicle.
3. Use a nylon strap to securely fasten the platform
against the wood block. Thread the strap over the
toeboard. Refer to Figure 8.
4. Secure the machine to the transport vehicle with
chains or straps of adequate load capacity attached
to the chassis lifting/tie down points.
