WHEN TRANSPORTING THE MACHINE, THE BOOM MUST BE FULLY
LOWERED INTO THE BOOM REST.

1. Remove all loose items from the machine.

2. When transporting, a step-deck or single-drop trailer is

required. To avoid damage to the platform and to obtain
proper weight distribution, load the machine onto the
trailer as follows;

a. Position the boom over the front wheels.

DO NOT SWING THE BOOM WITH THE MACHINE POSITIONED ON A
TRAILER. TIPOVER MAY RESULT.

b. Place the boom in the stowed position with the turn-

table locked.

DRIVE AND STEER CONTROLLERS WILL BE REVERSED WHEN THE
BOOM IS POSITIONED OVER THE FRONT WHEELS.

c. Drive it onto the trailer with the boom and platform

positioned towards the truck. Refer to Figure 4-5.,
Typical 680S Transport.

3. Secure the chassis and the platform using straps or

chains of adequate strength.
