5.2.1 Preconditions for the operation of tractors with rigid-drawbar trailers
WARNING Risk due to failure of components caused by incorrect use of
the tractor!
Ensure that:
•
the coupling device at the tractor has a sufficient admissible
tongue load rating for the actually existing tongue load.
•
the coupling device at the tractor and the drawgear at the rigid-
drawbar trailer are able to take up the towed load of the rigid-
drawbar trailer (towed load = axle load). Calculate th
e tractor’s
admissible towing capacity if necessary.
•
the tractor's axle loads and weights influenced by the tongue
load are within the admissible limits. Check the weight in case
of doubt.
•
the static, actual rear-axle load of the tractor does not exceed
the admissible rear-axle load rating.
•
the gross vehicle weight rating of the tractor will not be
exceeded.
•
the admissible load capacities of the tractor tyres are not
exceeded.
