least. 

z  Please stand aside if a tire starts to fall down. Never try to hold a tire since the tires for 

engineering mechanisms are generally very heavy, and you may be seriously hurt. 

8.20 Waste Materials 

Do as follows to prevent pollution: 

z  Never dump waste oil under ground or into the river. 

z  Contain the oil vented from the machine in a container; never dump the oil directly onto the 

ground. 

z  Obey the relative rules and laws when dealing with harmful materials such as grease, fuel, 

coolant, solvent, filter and storage battery. 

 

9 SAFETY TRANSPORTATION 

9.1 Assemble and Disassemble the Machine 

z  The danger always occurs when assembling and disassembling the machine. So keep the engine 

speed low during loading and unloading the machine. 

z  Load and unload machine on level ground and remain at a safe distance off the road. 

z  Secure the tires well during loading and unloading the machine to make sure it will not move. Put 

a cushion under the gangway. 

z  Slope boards should be strong enough with sufficient length and width to form a safe slope. The 

angle with the ground should not be larger than 15°. Keep a safe distance between slope board 

and board, board and machine. 

z  Make sure the height of the two sides of the board is uniform to ensure firm orientation. 

z  Keep the board surface clean, free of lubricant, oil, ice and loose materials. Clean the dirt off the 

tires. 

z  Never turn around on the slope board. If it is necessary, turn outside the board and then drive 

back. 

z  Lock the direction mechanism after assembly, wedge the tires and tie the machine tightly with 

cords.

9.2 Transportation on the Ground 

z  Obey the rules about weight, height, width and length prescribed by national and local laws for 

transporting the machine using a tow truck. Obey the traffic rules. 

z  Know the weight, height, width and length of machine regulation before deciding the transport 

routine. 

z  Know the allowed limit of weight bearing when passing bridges or private buildings. Obey the 

relative rules when driving on the public roads. 

z  The machine may be unloaded when using other transportation. Please contact Shandong 

Lingong Construction Machinery Co. Ltd. or their accredited representative. 

9.3 Lifting 

Use the hook of the front and rear frame to transport the 

machine to ship or train. 

Select proper lifting equipment according to the weight 

of the loader, otherwise it is dangerous to surpass the 

weight limit. 

z  Notices for lifting: 

‹  Make sure the loader is in the transporting state. 

The front and rear frame should be in the middle 

position. Lock the machine using the lock bar to prevent rotation of the front and rear frame 

during lifting. 

‹  All the control levers (or handles) should be in the middle position. 

‹  Stop the engine, lock all the equipment using keys and then remove. 

‹  No one is allowed to stay in the operator cab. 

‹  Never lift the machine using steel wire connecting the two hooks on the front frame. 

‹  It is allowed to lift the machine using 4 steel wires of the same length (no shorter than 7m). 

‹  Keep the machine horizontal during lifting. 

‹  Prevent damage to hood, operator cab, and hydraulic pipes. 

‹  No person or car is allowed to pass under the machine during lifting. 

‹  Draw back the lock bar to turn the machine after lifting.
