•

The trailer is designed to operate on slopes up to 5°. When driving across such

slopes, adjust speed to the terrain conditions and exercise particular caution.

Driving trailer across terrain with steeper slopes may cause the trailer to tip over

as a result of loss of stability. Prolonged driving across steep ground may lead to

loss of braking efficiency.

•

While driving on public roads, the trailer and the tractor must be fitted with a

certified or authorised reflective warning triangle.

•

Periodically drain water from the air tanks in pneumatic system. During frosts,

freezing water may cause damage to pneumatic system components.

•

Reckless driving and excessive speed may cause accidents.
