2 - SAFETY INFORMATION
Traveling on public roads
Comply with the relevant traffic regulations
WARNING
Impact hazard!
Take care when making turns. The machine
rear end swings out when changing direction.
Failure to comply could result in death or se-
rious injury.
W0089A
WARNING
Loss of control hazard!
Uneven brake force exists on left-hand and
right-hand brakes. Always use brake pedal
coupler when traveling on public roads to en-
sure brakes are actuated together.
Failure to comply could result in death or se-
rious injury.
W0081A
The implement is built according to the homologation re-
quirements of your country. Do not modify the implement
in a sense that would conflict with the national regulations.
If you wish to transport the implement on the public road,
make sure that the combination tractor and implement
observes the traffic rules in your country. This gives you
and your surroundings the best possible safety.
The operators must observe relevant statutory or other
national regulations that deal with road safety and labor
safety issues.
Before you drive the implement on public roads:
• Check the allowable transport dimensions and weights.
• Install correctly the lighting and the warning panels.
Always observe the principles for permissible axle loads,
the total unit mass and the transport gauge.
Observe the tractor manufacturer regulations and recom-
mendations, specifically those relating to maximum trans-
port loads and maximum speed.
Even in similar circumstances, the maximum allowed
speed can vary depending on which country you travel
in.
Always drive with the statutory lights and safety marking
during transport on public road and at night.
Install all the required signs that indicate the vehicle width.
Also install all the required lights that indicate the vehicle
width during the nightly transport. If in doubt, contact your
government department responsible for road transport.
Travel may be restricted to certain road types. Transport
may be restricted to daytime or outside peak traffic hours.
However plan your route to avoid heavy traffic and peak
traffic hours.
Passengers
Do not allow passengers to ride in the tractor unless a
specific seat is provided.
During transport, the transportation of people on the top
of the implement is strictly forbidden.
Transport safety
Transport the implement only in transport position. Se-
cure the implement for transport. Always activate the me-
chanical transport safety devices before transport.
Make sure to fit all the hitch pins with retaining pins cor-
rectly. Mechanically secure the hydraulic cylinders to pre-
vent cylinders from creeping.
Drive safe
Do not drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Never travel at speed in crowded areas.
When you maneuver the tractor with the implement, al-
ways be aware and conscious of its size.
The tractor driver must not leave the cabin during trans-
port.
Always consider other road users.
Always adopt safe driving practices. Slow down and sig-
nal before turning. Give way to oncoming traffic in all sit-
uations, including narrow bridges, intersections etcetera.
Pull over to allow faster traffic to pass.
If the implement is marked with a maximum speed limit,
never exceed this maximum speed limit.
Always adjust the driving speed to the road and weather
conditions. In case of bad road conditions and high driv-
ing speeds, big forces may occur and cause overload of
tractor and implement.
Drive at a safe speed to ensure control and ability to stop
in an emergency.
Lock the tractor brake pedals together. Never use inde-
pendent breaking at transport speeds.
Mounted implements and ballast weights influence the
driving, steering and braking capacity of the tractor. Make
sure that the additional weight of the implement on the
linkage does not compromise driving, steering and brak-
ing capacity of the tractor. Install front weights or repair
the brakes if the tractor is not safe to drive.
Reduce speed during turns. Tractors have not been de-
signed for fast turning. Avoid that the rear end of the im-
plement hits an obstacle.
