SECTION 4 Pronar T900
4.21
Loads in packaging
Loads transported in packaging (boxes, sacks) must be laid closely side-by-side beginning
from the front side of the trailer. If it is essential to lay several layers, particular groups should
be stacked alternately (in block system). The load must be laid tightly together and on the
whole surface of the trailer floor. Otherwise, the load will move during travel. Due to the trailer
design (no load anchorages), packaged materials can be only arranged below the load box
wall height.
DANGER
If there is a danger of load packaging moving, do NOT transport this type of material. A
moving load constitutes a serious hazard during travel for the tractor driver and other
road users.
Overloading the trailer, erroneous loading and securing of the load is the most frequent
cause of accidents during transport.
The load must be arranged in such a way that it does not threaten the stability of the
trailer and does not hinder driving.
Ensure that there are no bystanders in the unloading and loading zone. Before unloading
the load box ensure proper visibility and make certain that there are no bystanders near
the trailer.
Materials which may cause corrosion of steel, chemical damage or react in any other way
negatively affecting the trailer structure may be transported only on condition of appropriate
load preparation. Materials must be tightly packed (in plastic foil sacks, plastic containers
etc.). During transport, packaging contents may not come into contact with load box.
Therefore, ensure the appropriate tightness of containers.
It is impossible to describe all methods of loading due to the diversity of materials, tools,
means of fixing and securing a load. While working be guided by caution and own
experience. The trailer user must carefully read the regulations concerning road transport
and comply with them.
