see clearly!
It is forbidden to ride on the machine or use it as a means of

Drive in such a way that you always have full control over the tractor

In so doing, take your personal abilities into account, as well as
the road, traffic, visibility and weather conditions, the driving
characteristics of the tractor and the connected machine.

the task.
When connecting machines to the tractor three-point hydraulic

the following may not be exceeded:

Secure the tractor and the machine against unintentional rolling,
before coupling or uncoupling the machine.
It is forbidden for people to stand between the machine to be
coupled and the tractor, whilst the tractor is moving towards the
machine!
Any helpers may only act as guides standing next to the
vehicles, and may only move between the vehicles when both

Secure the operating lever of the tractor hydraulic system so that
unintentional raising or lowering is impossible, before connecting
the machine to or disconnecting the machine from the tractor's
three-point hydraulic system.
