Basic Issue Items (BII) include a set of three door storage brackets. Door storage brackets are stowed behind front
radiator lower grill and secured with knobs. Retrieve brackets before beginning this procedure. Reinstall knobs.
Removed doors are attached to storage brackets and, using wood supports, will be secured to shipping platform
along with ROPS/FOPS. Arrange two 36-in. long (91 cm) 4x4s parallel to each other, 36 in. (91 cm) apart, on
shipping platform.
Components that are removed for transport but that are too small to be tied down must be securely stored on the
machine.
