MACHINE TRACTION !
WARNING
• To draw a machine, use a shackle and a wire rope, the strength of which are at least one and a half times as strong as the machine weight. The wire rope must be free from kinks, twists, and breaks. • While drawing a machine, make sure that no person comes between the tractor and the machine drawn. • Put the wire rope horizontally, while making it face the track frame straight. • Draw the traction rope gradually, taking care not to load it abruptly. • Move the target machine slowly. • Drawing a machine on a downward slope may let the machine run away out of control. On a bad upward slope, watch the wire carefully. Always use the traction hook in the back of the bottom frame of the machine drawn.
IMPORTANT Wire ropes which diameter are more than ø30 can be used. A shackle must be strong enough to draw the machine.
