6. Transporting the roller
For transporting the roller, a three-point linkage on the tractor (front or rear-mounted)
is used.
CAUTION!
Travelling on public road with a roller the length and height of
which is over 3.0 m and 4.0 m respectively is forbidden due to its excessive
travel width.
CAUTION!
While transporting the roller attached to the rear-mounted three-
point linkage, only tractors equipped with a set of front axle weights are
allowed. In case of the front axle, place the additional load on the rear axle
as required.
If the roller is transported on the rear-mounted three-point linkage, before entering any
public road, place an identification emblem for slow-driving vehicles in the roller holder and
position holders of reflective lights so that white reflective elements face the travelling
direction of the tractor. The rolled attached to the front three-point linkage should feature
side-
marker and reflective lights. If the tractor’s headlights are not visible, their equivalents
should be installed on the machine. While being transported, the roller must be positioned
sufficiently high to ensure that the clearance beneath the roller is at least 30 cm.
