METHOD AND ARRANGEMENT FOR TRANSFERRING A HEAVY WORK MACHINE ON A SLOPING BASE
First Claim
1. Method for slowing transfer of a heavy work machine on a sloping base using a transportation device equipped with wheels, the work machine including a body, a crawler chassis fitted beneath the body, a set of booms having at least one operating cylinder, a first end and a second end, said set of booms being pivoted at the first end to the work machine and a selected auxiliary device is pivoted at the second end, and a brake surface connected to the auxiliary device, the method comprising the steps of:
- transferring the heavy work machine by supporting the work machine on the crawler chassis at least partly on top of the transportation device,towing the heavy work machine using a transfer vehicle with the aid of the transportation device,using said operating cylinder of the set of booms to press the brake surface against the sloping base to create friction to slow transfer speed of the transportation device on the sloping base, andadjusting the pressing of the brake surface taking place through the auxiliary device using the operating cylinder of the set of booms.

Abstract
A method for slowing transfer of a heavy work machine on a sloping base using a transportation device equipped with wheels, the work machine including a body, a crawler chassis fitted beneath the
- body, a set of booms having at least one operating cylinder, a first end and a second end, said set of booms being pivoted at the first end to the work machine and a selected auxiliary device is pivoted at the second end, and a brake surface connected to the auxiliary device, in which method includes the steps of
- transferring the work machine by supporting the work machine on the crawler chassis at least partly on top of the transportation device,
- towing the work machine using a transfer vehicle with the aid of the transportation device,
- using said operating cylinder of the set of booms to press the brake surface against the sloping base to create friction to slow transfer speed of the transportation device on the sloping base, and
- adjusting pressing of the brake surface taking place through the auxiliary device using the operating cylinder or one set of booms. An arrangement in connection with a heavy work machine for transferring the work machine on a sloping base is also described.

12. Arrangement for transferring a heavy work machine on a sloping base, the heavy work machine including a body, a crawler chassis fitted under the body, and a set of booms having at least one operating cylinder, a first end and a second end, said set of booms being pivoted at the first end to the heavy work machine and a selected auxiliary device pivoted at the second end of said set of booms, the arrangement comprising:
-
a transportation device equipped with wheels, on top of which transportation device the heavy work machine is arranged to be at least partly supported for a duration of transfer, a transfer vehicle for towing the heavy work machine during the transfer, the heavy work machine being at least partly supported on top of the transportation device, a brake surface connected to the auxiliary device at a distance from the body for retarding the transfer speed of the heavy work machine with the aid of friction arranged to be pressed against the sloping base by using said operating cylinder of the set of booms with the aid of the auxiliary device to brake the transfer speed of the heavy work machine during the transfer with the aid of friction, and an operating device for using the operating cylinder to press the brake surface of the auxiliary device against the sloping base. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
