TRANSPORT
Limit the transport speed to maximum 30 km/h if the machine has not been marked
with another maximum speed limit.
When the machine has been prepared for transport, the control unit must be turned
off on the button at the side of the control box and the oil flow to the machine must be
disengaged. This prevents faulty operation during transport.
DANGER: Never let anyone stand or sit on the machine, especially not when
you are driving.
The machine has equipment for hydraulic conversion to transport position and the
cylinder for this is fitted with a self locking valve. If there is air in the cylinder during
transport there is a risk that the machine moves to the opposite lane, or towards the
roadside where on coming vehicles may be present.
IMPORTANT: If the machine is equipped with auto hitch, the mechanical lock on
the auto hitch must be activated when driving with a trailed wagon on
public roads. This also applies if a self locking valve is fitted on the
lifting cylinder of the auto hitch.
IMPORTANT: To ensure all the air has been expelled from the oil in the hydraulic
cylinders; test all the functions after the hydraulic connections are
connected to the tractor, especially before driving on the public road.
The attachments of the forage harvester (pick-up etc.) must be secured mechanically
before transport.
The statutory lighting and traffic markings must be placed correctly, on the forage
harvester as well as the trailer.
Reflectors and lighting must be cleaned regularly.
