Precautions for Self-Traveling Avoid driving the wheel loader long distances at high-speed as much as possible as it may overheat the tires, possibly resulting in premature tire damage and/or wear.
Page 246
TRANSPORTING Precautions for Towing WARNING: Never attempt to tow the machine if the brake system is in need of repair. Ask your authorized dealer to repair the machine. Operate the machine only after repair is completed. Avoid towing the machine as much as possible. If the machine is to be unavoidably towed, beware of the following points.
Page 247
TRANSPORTING Hydraulic Circuit Bypass The machine can be towed by loosening shuttle valve (1) in an emergency. CAUTION: When towing the machine at high speed, components may be damaged by insufficient lubrication due to heat generated from the components. Use this towing method only in an emergency when towing for short distance at vehicle speed less than 3 km/h (1.86 mph).
