Transportation And Storage
Transportation
Feed all of the cable into the drum. Remove any cutter or
tool from the cable. Make sure that no more than 6" cable
is outside the drum. Tighten the AUTOFEED knob onto
the cable. Wrap the foot switch hose around foot switch
hose wrap. See Figure 27 .
Before moving the machine, make sure that the tele-
scoping handle is secured into the extended position for
transport. If the machine needs to be lifted, use proper
lifting techniques. Use care moving equipment on stairs
and be aware of possible slip hazards.
Manual Loading
With the telescoping handle locked into the extended
position, place machine with wheels toward the vehicle.
Lean the machine back and rest the loading wheels on
the vehicle bed. Use loading handles to lift the machine
and slide it onto the vehicle (Figure 26). Use care not
to damage foot switch hose. Be aware of the machine
weight. Use proper lifting techniques – more than one
person may be required.
Loading with Crane/Winch
If lifting with a crane/winch, entire machine weight can
be carried with handle. Lock the telescoping handle into
lowest position for lifting. Depending on which drum is
being used the angle in which the machine rests may
vary (Figure 27).
