Operational Safety
The machine must only be put into operation after receiving instructions by employees of the autho-
rized dealer or a HORSCH employee. The machine registration form has to be completed and returned
to HORSCH .
Road Traffic Safety
The valid road traffic regulations are to be observed when traveling on public roads, paths and areas.
Do not exceed the maximum permissible transportation widths and heights and install road lighting
equipment, warnings and safety covers where necessary.
Do not exceed the permissible axle loads, tire carrying capacities and total weights, in order to ensure
sufficient steering and braking capabilities. Handling is affected by the implement connected. It is
important to take into account the large overhang and the centrifugal mass of the implement,
particularly when cornering. DO NOT EXCEED A MAXIMUM SPEED OF 20 MPH DURING
TRANSPORTATION. LOSS OF VEHICLE/MACHINE CONTROL CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY
OR DEATH!
The whole machine is to be cleaned of soil that has been collected before travel on public roads. Be
sure to thoroughly clean the debris from the rear Roll-Flex packer system.
Passengers are strictly forbidden to ride on the machine.
Hydraulic connections
•
Do not connect hydraulic lines to the tractor before both hydraulic systems (machine and tractor) are
depressurized.
• The hydraulic system is under high pressure. Check all lines, hoses and screwed connections regularly
for leaks and any visible external damage!
• Only use appropriate aids when checking for leaks. Repair any damage immediately! Oil sprays can
cause injuries and fire!
• In the case of injury, contact a doctor immediately!
The control units on the tractor must be secured or locked when not in use or
when the machine is in transport position, in order to prevent accidents caused
by unintended hydraulic movements or movements caused by persons other
than the operator (children, passengers).
Pressure Accumulator
Depending on the equipment of the machine, the hydraulic system may have a pressure accumulator
installed.
Do not travel on roads with the rear Roll-Flex packer system on the ground. This
may cause damage to the roads and premature wear and possible malfunction
of components to the machine.
