4.5 LOAD TRANSPORTATION
When driving on roads (public and non-
public), comply with traffic regulations,
be prudent and considerate. Below are
the most important guidelines for driving
a tractor with a trailer or trailers attached.
• Before moving off make sure that
there are no bystanders, especially
children, near the trailer and tractor.
Ensure proper visibility.
• Make sure that the trailer is correctly
connected to the tractor and tractor's
hitch is properly secured.
• The trailer must not be overloaded,
the load must be distributed evenly in
such a way that it does not exceed
the permissible pressure on the
trailer's running gear. Exceeding the
permissible load capacity of the ve-
hicle is forbidden and may cause
damage to the machine, and may
also pose a threat during road travel
for the tractor and trailer operator or
other road users.
• The permissible design speed and
speed resulting from restrictions on
road traffic regulations must not be
exceeded. The travel speed should
be adjusted to the prevailing road
conditions, trailer load condition, type
of load carried and other conditions.
• The trailer may be towed on slopes
of up to 8°, unloading should only be
carried out on level ground.
• The trailer disconnected from the
tractor must be secured by immobi-
lizing it with the parking brake and
placing chocks or other elements
without sharp edges under the wheel.
Leaving an unsecured trailer is pro-
hibited. In the event of a machine
breakdown, stop at the side of the
road without endangering other road
users and mark the stopping place in
accordance with traffic regulations.
• Before driving, the trailer's braking
force should be adjusted by setting
the braking force regulator lever -
figure (4.7) - for pneumatic braking
systems,
• When travelling on public roads, the
trailer must be marked with a slow-
moving vehicle warning sign located
CAUTION
Before driving the trailer, check that:
• bolts connecting the load box to the lower
frame are secured against spontaneous falling out,
• extensions pins are secured against falling
out.
Travelling with a volumetric load through ruts, ditch-
es, slopes etc. poses a great risk of tipping over.
Take special care.
