Transport By Truck; Towing & Winching Valves - Upright MB20N/26 Betriebsanleitung

T
RANSPORT BY
The MB20/26 can be carried on a suitably rated transportation vehicle or trailer.
Because of its high gradeability, the machine can be driven under its own power on to
a standard loading ramp (Up to 14 degrees).
It is recommended to reverse the machine up on to the truck thus forward travelling
down the ramp at the delivery point. Winch-assisted loading is allowable for larger
slopes, however, operate the trucks assist winch at minimum speed to avoid over-
pressurising the hydraulic system in the machine.
When the MB20/26 is on the truck or trailer it should then be made secure by:-
1. Chocking the wheels.
2. Securing with adequate chains or straps to the lifting lugs on the chassis.
C A U T I O N
!
DO NOT loop straps through the cage, ladder or jib as this could
cause permanent structural damage during transportation.
T
OWING
The fail-safe brakes are automatically applied when the machine comes to a stop or in
the event of total power loss due to low battery or malfunction of the hydraulic drive
system.
To tow the vehicle or to winch it on to a truck it is necessary to hydraulically bypass the
control valves and release these brakes.
