S205 Skid-Steer Loader
55 Operation & Maintenance Manual
TOWING THE LOADER
Procedure
Because of the design of the loader, there is not a
recommended towing procedure.
• The loader can be lifted onto a transport vehicle.
• The loader can be skidded a short distance to move
for service (EXAMPLE: Move onto a transport
vehicle) without damage to the hydrostatic system.
(The tires / tracks will not turn.) There might be slight
wear to the tires / tracks when the loader is skidded.
The towing chain (or cable) must be rated at 1 &
1/2 times the weight of the loader. (See Machine
Rating on Page 120.)
