8.) It is advisable to keep a first-aid kit on hand.
9.) Do not brake abruptly as this could cause the
machine to swerve.
10.) When driving downhill, never exceed 20 km/h
and always stay in gear; never change into
neutral.
On steep slopes, change into a lower gear:
please see relevant specifications on
page 1-37 of this section.
Gradually engage the multifunction lever.
Avoid abrupt turns when driving up or downhill
or across steep slopes.
11.) In countries where travelling on roads with the
table attached is allowed when circumstances
permit, the table must be secured against
lowering by engaging the safety stops on the
hydraulic cylinders and locking the main crop
elevator adapter.

DANGER:
Risk of electrocution.
12.) Beware of overhead lines and check that the
combine can easily pass under without
touching the lines, particularly if equipped with
an antenna. Take particular care when driving
through underpasses; make sure the machine
is able to pass through easily. In case of
contact between the machine and the power
supply line, the following procedure must be
adopted:
a)
Disengage all drives.
b)
Switch off the engine.
c)
Apply the parking brake.
d)
Ensure that you can leave the operator
seat safely without touching the electrical
cables.
e)
Jump from the last step, making sure there
is no contact of body parts, ground and
machine.
f)
Do not touch the machine until the power
has been cut off. Anyone approaching the
machine must be informed not to touch it.
g)
Ask the power station to cut off the power.
13.) When driving on the road at night, the front
headlights must be dipped so that the low
beam line hits the ground no further than 10 m
in front of the vehicle. The rotating beacons
must always be operating, even when there is
no need for visual signalling and lighting
devices. Switch off the work lights.
14.) Before driving on public roads, ensure the
machine is equipped for road transport (see
page 2-51).
