3.2 Tyres
•
Tyre pressures must not exceed those recommended by the manufacturer and it is
forbidden to transport the machine at too low a pressure. This may damage the
machine and cause an accident on large uneven surfaces and when driving too
fast.
•
Significantly damaged tyres (particularly profile damage) must be replaced
immediately.
•
When replacing tyres, the machine must be secured against rolling.
•
Repair work on wheels or tyres should be carried out by persons trained and
authorised for this purpose. This work should be carried out with appropriately
selected tools.
•
Each time the wheels are fitted, the tightness of the nuts should be checked after
50km.
3.3 Hydraulic and pneumatic systems
The hydraulic and pneumatic system is under high pressure. All precautions should
be taken, in particular:
•
do not connect or disconnect the hydraulic lines when the tractor's hydraulic
system is under pressure (hydraulics set to neutral),
•
regularly check the condition of the connections and the hydraulic and pneumatic
hoses.
•
the unit must be taken out of service while the hydraulic or pneumatic failure is
being rectified.
3.4 Safety regarding transport on public roads
For transport, the shaft must be folded into the transport position and secured
with pins on a ladder.
During transport, the clearance under the machine should be at least 30 cm
When transporting the unit on public roads, the use of a luminous device, a
distinguishing sign and side reflectors is mandatory.
The travelling speed during transport must not be exceeded:
–
on roads with a smooth surface (asphalt) up to 25 km/h,
–
on dirt or paved roads 6-10 km/h,
–
on bumpy roads not more than 5 km/h.
The driving speed must be adapted to the condition of the road and the conditions
on the road so that the unit does not jump up on the tractor's suspension system. Take
extra care when passing, overtaking and on bends. The permissible operating width of
the machine when travelling on public roads is 3.0 m. It is forbidden to transport the
unit where the slope preceding the aggregate exceeds 7º.
WARNING! Failure to comply with the above rules may create hazards for the
operator and bystanders as well as damage to the machine. Damage resulting from
non-compliance with these rules is the responsibility of the user.
