• Properly support the boom when detaching it for transportation to prevent uncontrolled movement
• Travel and lift loads on level surfaces only to maintain stability

• Prevent wire ropes from crossing when spooling on the winch drums
• Consider ground conditions and ensure the tracks can support the machine’s weight without sinking
• Face the boom uphill on slopes and keep the boom as low as possible to maintain a low center of gravity
