[QUOTE="Bandit1047, post: 18216, member: 1222"] If the unit is small, take a bottle of soap and water and winch it onto a trailer while squirting the soap solution under the tires. Fill the tires with air for less drag. The bucket can be lowered by cracking the hydraulic hoses, however this is a risky operation and you need to prevent it from comming all the way to the ground or comming down on someones arm or leg. Also prop the roof up B-4 doing this. If you can lift one end of the unit off the ground and drive the ramp under the first set of wheels, you have the problem half solved. Wash any dirt and gravel off the tires while it is up, this will also help it slide easier. If you try and start it, make sure all the fluids are up and prop that roof. If the unit starts, you don't know what a stuck hydraulic valve will do. Remember, “SAFETY FIRST” Joe [/QUOTE]
