2.9 Trailers and attachments
• Fit the attachments with the specially required devices only!
• Before uncoupling or coupling hydraulic lines (hydraulic quick couplers)
• Stop the engine
• Relieve hydraulic oil pressure in the hydraulic system; do this by moving the
operating levers of the hydraulic control units to and fro several times
• Coupling attachments requires special care!
• Secure the attachments against unintentional movement!
• Operate the machine only if all protective facilities have been installed and are
functional, and if all brake, light and hydraulic connections have been connected!

• Especially when performing machine travel and operation with machines equipped with
a quickhitch for the attachments, ensure that the attachment is securely locked in the
quickhitch. The lock pin must be visible on either side of the bores on the attachment.
Check again before starting work.
