Always attach chains to the front and back tie-down
lugs (8). Chocks may be removed at this time,
though it is a good idea to leave them in place.

Reverse the above procedure after transporting.

Towing

Do not tow an SRT. The SRT hydraulic-drive motors
will be permanently damaged, and rendered use-
less, by towing speeds.

Lifting

An SRT can be safely lifted. However, only a trained
qualified service technician should perform lifting.

Pushing

An SRT can be safely pushed by hand on level, firm
surfaces. The procedure for pushing is located in
the “Emergency Operation” chapter.9

Winching Procedure

1. Locate transport vehicle so that SRT

2670 will not roll forward after being
loaded.

2. Fully lower platform and retract extension

deck.

3. Be sure the machine is centered with the

loading ramps and carrier vehicle bed,
and that the steering wheels are straight.

4. Attach the winch at the tie down lugs on

the front (steer) end of the chassis.

5. Disengage parking brakes and open

free-wheeling valve to prevent damage to
hydraulic motors. (Refer to procedures
outlined for pushing in the “Operation”
chapter 8

6. Winch machine onto transport vehicle.

7. Close free-wheeling valve and reset

parking brakes.
