INSTRUCTION MANUAL – T703A FARMING TRUCK TRAILER
Before loading, check that both sideboard and extension locks are closed.
When loading the Trailer, distribute the load evenly over the entire surface of the
Trailer's body.
When transporting materials exerting point pressure on the floor of the body
(concentrated loads, e.g. large stones), place thick boards on the floor before loading. This will
mean smaller surface load on the floor and protection against damage.
When transporting bulk materials, use board extensions on the Trailer body, and when
transporting materials protruding beyond the contour planes of the Trailer, observe road-traffic
regulations and mark the protruding load accordingly.
CAUTION
CAUTION!
It is forbidden to exceed the permissible load capacity of the Trailer
and the permissible axle loads, as this threatens road safety, and can
cause damage to the Trailer.
The load to be carried must be protected against displacement, the
generation of excessive noise, and road spillage.
CAUTION
CAUTION!
It is forbidden to transport people and animals on the Trailer.
