4.10 SAFETY PROPS
SAFETY PROPS MUST BE USED WHEN MAINTENANCE PER-
FORMED ON MACHINE REQUIRES SIZZOR ARMS TO BE RAISED.
To engage safety props, raise platform so that both props
can be disconnected from locking arms and lowered to a
vertical position. Lower the platform until the safety props
rest on the pads provided on the frame. Maintenance can
now begin.
To store safety props, raise platform so that props can be
pivoted up and secured by their locking arms.
4.11 MACHINE TIE DOWN
When transporting machine, platform must be fully
retracted in the stowed mode with machine securely tied
down to truck or trailer deck. Four tie down lugs are pro-
vided, one at each corner of the machine frame.
USE TIE DOWN LUGS ONLY TO SECURE THE MACHINE FOR
SHIPPING. DO NOT USE TIE DOWN LUGS TO LIFT MACHINE.
4.12 TOWING
The machine should not be towed, except in the event of
an emergency such as a machine malfunction or a total
machine power failure. Refer to Section 6 for emergency
towing procedures.
