Transport journeys
A transport journey is a journey of the charged or empty machine to or from the place of operation.
Additionally observe the chapter "Basic safety instructions", page 35, when carrying
out transport journeys.
Before carrying out transport journeys, check:
the lighting system for damage, proper functioning and cleanliness,
whether the parking brake has been completely released,
the brake system for proper functioning,
whether parts of the load risk to fall off the machine. When travelling on public
roads and paths parts of the load falling off onto the road must be avoided.
Switch the work lights off when travelling on roads.
WARNING
Risk of being crushed, drawn in or risk of impact to people if tractor and
machine tip over due to insufficient stability!
Adapt your driving such that you have always safe control over the tractor and the
attached/hitched machines:
Consider your personal abilities as well as the road, cornering, traffic, visibility
and weather conditions, the driving characteristics of the tractor as well as the
influences exerted by the attached/hitched machine.
Never take a tight curve at excessive travelling speed.
Avoid sudden changes of direction when travelling uphill and downhill and when
traversing hills (risk of tipping over!).
