GENERAL
The trailer is designed for use in a wide range of conditions. The paragraphs in this work package
provide the data and procedures to be used by the Operator when preparing to move the trailer.
PREPARATION FOR MOVEMENT
WARNING
Heavy objects/loads, such as tool boxes and heavy parts, must always be
positioned as low as possible in the trailer with the weight distributed as
equally as possible between left and right sides of trailer. Poor weight
distribution decreases the stability of the trailer and will increase the
likelihood of a rollover. Failure to comply may result in serious injury or death
to personnel.
Cargo bed is approximately 5 ft (1.5 m) above ground level. Use care during
any loading/unloading operation. Failure to comply may result in serious
injury or death to personnel.
Ensure that wheels are chocked prior to loading trailer. Failure to comply may
result in serious injury or death to personnel or damage to equipment.
1.
All objects that can shift during movement will be secured by using a bracing, cushioning, or
tiedown method. The method used must not cause damage to the walls or equipment.
WARNING
Trailer must not be operated until rear panel and side panels are raised and
properly secured. Failure to comply may result in serious injury or death to
personnel or damage to equipment.
