WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
♦
Loading a unit on a trailer or truck increases the
possibility of backward tip-over.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
♦
Backward tip-over of the unit could cause serious
injury or death.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
♦
Use extreme caution when operating a unit on a ramp.
♦
Use only a single, full width ramp; DO NOT use
individual ramps for each side of the unit.
♦
If individual ramps must be used, use enough ramps to
create an unbroken ramp surface wider than the unit.
♦
DO NOT exceed a 15
°
angle between ramp and
ground or between ramp and trailer or truck.
♦
Avoid sudden acceleration while driving unit up a ramp
to avoid tipping backward.
♦
Avoid sudden deceleration while backing unit down a
ramp to avoid tipping backward.

Gasoline vapor can collect inside enclosed trailers and
may be ignited by electrical sparks or hot
engine/exhaust components.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
♦
Explosion and fire may occur, resulting in property
damage, personal injury and/or death.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

Provide adequate ventilation of any enclosed trailer to
prevent build up of gasoline vapors, especially at floor
level.
