3.4.2 Loading a Unit: Use extreme caution when loading units on trailers or trucks. One
full width ramp is required. If it is not possible to use one full width ramp, use
enough individual ramps to simulate a full width continuous ramp.
Ramp should be long enough so that the angles between the ramp and the ground
and the ramp and the trailer or truck do not exceed 15
°. A steeper angle may
cause mower deck components to get caught as the unit moves from ramp to
trailer or truck. Steeper angles may also cause the unit to tip. If loading on or
near a slope, position the trailer or truck so it is on the down side of the slope and
the ramp extends up the slope. This will minimize the ramp angle. The trailer or
truck should be as level as possible.
DO NOT attempt to turn the unit while on the ramp, you may lose control and drive
off the side.
Avoid sudden acceleration when driving on a ramp.
