Loading should be carried out by a person having appropriate authorisation for operating the
equipment (if required).
DANGER
Overloading the trailer, erroneous loading and securing of the load is the most
frequent cause of accidents during transport.
Uneven arrangement of the load may cause overloading of the trailer's axle.
Do not carry people or animals.

•

•
rear beam of the extendible frame,
•
transport lugs welded to the longitudinal members,
•
oblong structural holes in the side part of profiled floor,
•
tensioners bolted to front beam,
•
grips welded to front ladder and rear ladder.

to be transported on slopes and/or in strong gusty winds conditions, limit the load height
according to existing conditions.
Regardless of the type of load carried, the user is obliged to secure it in such a manner that
