A trailer may tip over, especially when its bed has been lifted. Never leave the driver’s
seat when the trailer is tipped. If the material does not slide from the trailer when
tipping, lower the bed before trying to assist to empty the trailer with other means. Do
not shake or twitch the trailer when it is tipped.
•
Keeping the trailer lifted causes the risks of loss of stability and crushing in between the
bed and frame of the trailer. Keep the bed lowered to its lowest position and utilize the
tipping function only at the final emptying spot. Driving while the bed is lifted is
prohibited except when moving short distances while emptying the trailer. The trailer
bed must not be left to lifted position.
•
A load that is too heavy for the operating conditions hinders the controllability of the
loader. The maximum stated capacity can not be regarded as the maximum safe load.
The load must be adapted to the operating conditions and also with the loader model in
use. The warranty does not cover for damages caused by overload.
•
Uneven load may cause loss of stability or hinder the controllability of the loader. Load
the trailer as evenly as possible both laterally and longitudinally. Make sure that enough
load is applied on the drawbar and the trailer hitch of the loader; the drawbar load must
never be negative.
•
Moving of the load on trailer may affect the balance of the trailer and the controllability
of the loader. Prevent the load on the trailer from moving.
•
The loader and the trailer may start to move when parked on a slope or during loading.
Always park the trailer on an even platform and make sure that the trailer is supported
adequately, regardless of being hitched to the loader or standing independently.
•
Pay attention to the contours of the terrain and other hazards, such as branches and
trees reaching the driver's area. Pay attention to the surroundings and any other
persons and machines moving in the vicinity.
•
Familiarise yourself with the loader controls in a safe area. Pay particular attention to
the safe stopping of the attachment and the machine.
•
Shut down the loader before any maintenance or adjustments.
•
Do not modify the structure of the trailer in a manner that would affect its safety.
•
Also read the safety instructions for the loader in the loader manual.
Learning how to control the trailer and how to reverse with the combination may
require separate practise. Familiarise yourself with the controls in an area that is free
of obstacles and safe.
Note that the trailer bed can be lowered even if the engine has been stopped. The
bed may also lower due to a fault in the hydraulic system. Never go under a raised
trailedr bed or leave the bed lifted also because of the tipping over hazard.
The total weight of the trailer should not exceed the maximum loaded mass of the
loader. Load the trailer according to operating conditions using, for example, table 3
shown on page 10.
Transporting persons with the trailer is strictly prohibited. Even a temporary ride may
lead to serious injuries.
