A - Front tie-downs (two places) Use the front towing eye.

B - The ripper must be raised.

C - Lifting a machine without a ripper

D - Side tie-downs (two places) Use the inside edge of the track.

E - Rear tie-downs (two places) Use the drawbar, the outer edge of the track, or the ripper. The ripper must be lowered if this procedure is used.

The crane should be positioned so that the machine may be lifted in a level plane. The spreader bars should be wide enough to prevent contact between the crane and the machine that is being lifted.

Use properly rated cables and properly rated slings to lift the machine. For a machine without a ripper (C), position the slings beneath the front of the track and beneath the rear of the track. For a machine with a ripper (B), position the slings beneath the front of the track and under the ripper at the rear of the machine.

Use the front towing eye to secure the front tie-down (A). Use the inside edge of the track shoe (D) to secure the side tie-downs. Three places per side Use the drawbar, the ripper, or the outer edge of the track shoe (E) to secure the rear tie-downs. Use corner protectors on sharp corners.

Check all of the laws that govern the load characteristics (height, weight, width, and length).

Move the hydraulic activation control lever to the Locked position.
