Moving a Disabled Machine
Whenever the machine is stopped and the engine is not
running, the hydrostatic brakes automatically engage. Do not
attempt to tow the machine if it cannot move under its own
power. If possible, repair the machine at the site. If this is not
possible, use a crane and a spreader bar to lift the machine
onto a trailer, using the lift points.
