The following information assumes the handler cannot be moved under
its own power.
Before moving the handler, read all of the following information to understand
options available. Then select the appropriate method.
The steering system permits manual steering if engine or power assist
feature fails.
Remember:
• Although manual steering is possible without power assist, steering will be
slow and will require much greater force.
• Response to manual steering will be increased if parking brake is released
and front axle drive is bypassed, permitting front wheels to roll.
MOVING SHORT DISTANCES
If it is only necessary to move handler a short distance less than 30m (100
feet), it is permissible to use a vehicle of sufficient capacity to tow the unit
with no previous preparation. Drive wheels will not roll. If the unit must be
moved more than 30m (100 feet), but less than 182m (200 yards), it is
permissible to use a vehicle of sufficient capacity to tow unit after you:
• Release parking brake. See page 18.1.
MOVING LONGER DISTANCES
If the handler must be moved more than 182m (200 yards), it must be
loaded on to a trailer of sufficient capacity.
