1.5 TRANSPORT
The trailer is ready for sale in a completely assembled state and does not require packing.
Packing is only required for the machine's technical and driving documentation, connection
lead for the electrical system and any extra fittings.
IMPORTANT!
When transporting independently, the user must familiarise himself with the content of
these instructions and observe their recommendations. When being transported on a
motor vehicle the trailer must be mounted on the vehicle's platform in accordance with
the transport safety requirements. The driver of the vehicle should take particular care
while driving. This is due to the vehicle's centre of gravity shifting upwards when loaded
with the machine.
The trailer is delivered to the user either transported on a vehicle or, after being attached to a
tractor, independently (towed). In the case of independent (towed) delivery, the "slow moving
vehicle" plaque should be attached. The towing speed should be adapted to the current road
conditions, but must not be greater than the maximum design speed. The machine may sway
when being towed. Should this happen, the driving speed should be decreased.
When loading and unloading the trailer, comply with the general principles of workplace
health and safety for reloading work. Persons operating reloading equipment must have the
qualifications required to operate these machines.
The trailer should be attached firmly to the platform of the vehicle using straps or chains fitted
with a tightening mechanism. The fastening equipment used must have a valid safety
certificate. Wedges or other objects without sharp edges should be placed under the wheels
of the trailer to prevent it from rolling. The wedges must be fixed to the platform of the
vehicle. During reloading work, particular care should be taken not to damage parts of the
machine's fittings or the lacquer coating.
1.6 ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
A hydraulic oil leak constitutes a direct threat to the natural environment owing to its limited
biodegradability. While carrying out maintenance and repair work which involves the risk of
an oil leak, this work should take place on an oil resistant floor or surface. In the event of oil
leaking into the environment, first of all safeguard the source of the leak, and then remove
