Transport Machine

N67858-UN-24SEP04

A - Light Switch

B - Transport Position

CAUTION: DO NOT exceed maximum transport speed of 49 km/h (31 mph) or you may lose control of machine, causing serious injury or death to you or others.

Transport machine at narrowest tread adjust setting only.

IMPORTANT: A machine with a High Clearance Kit installed has an increased overall transport height. Additional awareness of overhead objects and transport speed is required.

1. Be sure SMV emblem is installed on boom (or rear of machine).

2. Start engine (See Starting the Engine in this section).

3. Turn light switch (A) to transport position (B) (as necessary). Check that amber warning lights are flashing and that all lights are clean and visible.

4. Adjust tread width to narrowest position. (See Setting Tread Width in Chassis section.)

5. IMPORTANT: Machine may be damaged if transported with booms not completely lowered onto boom supports.

   Hold Boom Lower switch for 5 seconds to ensure boom contacts and is supported by front boom support.

   Boom Return to Height will remain active after boom is folded. When lowering boom onto supports, boom may stop at set point if it is above support rest height. Boom can be lowered beyond set point by pressing Boom Lower switch again.

   Fold booms. (See Folding Boom in Booms section.)

   CAUTION: BoomTrac Pro will remain active after boom is folded. Stand clear of booms when BoomTrac is activated is activated. Booms will move when objects are moved within sensor range.

6. If nozzles are dripping, relieve boom pressure. (See Relieving Boom Pressure in Wet System section.)

7. Push throttle switch forward to achieve maximum engine speed.

8. Select appropriate target speed range (30 mph maximum). When machine is started, Low Range is automatically selected by the Chassis Control Unit.

   CAUTION: DO NOT exceed your local or national maximum transport speed limit or you may lose control of machine, causing serious injury or death to you or others. Know your local or national maximum transport speed limit before transporting the machine. (See Speed Limit Decal in the Specification section.)

   IMPORTANT: Road transport with loaded solution tank is not recommended for the 4730 sprayer.

   Road transport in excess of 8 km (5 mi.) with tank loads above limitations listed in the following table may result in premature wear or failure of the machine or personal injury. Exceeding these limitations may void manufacturer’s warranty.

   4730 Maximum Transport Load

   Tire Size	Maximum Transport Load
   320/90R46	Empty
   380/90R46	1514 L (400 gal.)
   420/80R46	1514 L (400 gal.)
   520/85R38	1514 L (400 gal.)

9. CAUTION: When transporting machine downhill at transport speeds, machine will try to hold the target speed until engine begins to overspeed. At this time the vehicle speed could increase beyond target speed. Before starting down a hill, select a speed range (30 mph maximum) that is appropriate for the load on the machine and the steepness and length of the slope.

   Push multifunction control handle slowly forward to start forward travel. Continue pushing handle forward to increase ground speed. When engine reaches maximum RPM, push top of target speed switch to advance to higher speed range, if desired.

10. To reverse direction of travel, move multifunction control handle to neutral and press brake pedal as required to bring machine to a complete stop, then move handle to the right and rear to back up machine. Reverse speed available is proportional to the target speed selected.
