Here's how we do it....4 ratchet binders , one at each end of the track, from the inside of the track to the edge of the trailer. Then a chain and binder over the bucket and another over the front blade. Never even been stopped so far. The machine never seems to move on the trailer.
Would this be legal in NY/NJ? I know the local HE dealer does the same with their machines....
The bible says no more than 25%, or 150mm, of the track unsupported,but ultimately it is the operators responsibility to ensure that the load restraint meets the performance standards mentioned in the guide.
