1) Follow the highway code in force.
2) Ensure that your equipment is always equipped with working signalling lights that are clean and visible
to other drivers.
3) Reduce your speed on country roads and bumpy surfaces.
Hitching to a vehicle:
Always hitch the shredder in a horizontal position in order to prevent the
machine from tipping backwards AND check that the tow bar’s nut joints
are secure on a daily basis to prevent jolting which would damage the
hitch and tow system and reduce its lifespan.
Coupling wear indicator:
Check the wear indicator each time you hitch the machine to a vehicle.
Systematically change the vehicle’s coupler head and/or hitch ball if the indicator is in the
MINUS zone to avoid losing the shredder when going over road humps or when reversing
up a curb.
YOU WILL BE HELD RESPONSIBLE IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT
Coupler head and/or hitch
ball in good state
Worn coupler head and/or
hitch ball
