Pronar T679 SECTION 1

DANGER
Incorrect use of securing measures may cause an accident.
1.5.2 INDEPENDENT TRANSPORT BY THE USER
If a purchased trailer is transported by the user, the user must read the Operator's Manual of
the trailer and adhere to the recommendations contained therein. Transport of the trailer by
the user involves towing the trailer with own agricultural tractor to destination. During
transport adjust travel speed to the prevailing road conditions, but do not exceed the
maximum design speed.
ATTENTION
Before transporting independently, the tractor driver must carefully read this Operator's
Manual and observe its recommendations.
1.6 ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
A hydraulic oil leak constitutes a direct threat to the natural environment owing to its limited
biodegradability. The negligible solubility of hydraulic oil in water does not cause extreme
toxicity of organisms living in the aquatic environment. The formation of a film of oil on the
water may be the direct cause of physical action on organism, perhaps causing change of
oxygen values in the water because of lack of direct contact of air with the water. An oil leak
into water reservoirs may however lead to a reduction of the oxygen content.
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 contain the source of the leak, and then collect the leaked oil using
available means. Remaining oil should be collected using sorbents, or by mixing the oil with
sand, sawdust or other absorbent materials. The oil pollution, once gathered up, should be
kept in a sealed, marked, hydrocarbon resistant container. The container should be kept
away from heat sources, flammable materials and food.
DANGER
Used hydraulic oil or gathered remains mixed with absorbent material should be stored in
a precisely marked container. Do not use food packaging for this purpose.
