Before leaving backhoe operator’s seat, position the

backhoe for transport by raising boom, crowding dip-

perstick in, swinging to center and raising the stabiliz-

ers. ALWAYS engage safety locks as shown in Figs. 1

When transporting for long distances, periodically

examine the backhoe and raise stabilizers and bucket

back up to the full transport height. It is normal for the

backhoe to slowly settle while being transported.
