RoGator 418
RoGator Towing Procedure
1. If at all possible, let the engine run when towing
the vehicles to provide sufficient hydraulic
power for the brakes. If the engine may NOT
run, be sure that there is enough hydraulic
power for a LIMITED number of braking.
2. It is recommended to use a tow bar instead of a
towing rope.
3. If the engine is NOT running, disengage the
parking brake by hand. Do this as follows:
I. Put chocks in front of and behind the wheels
to prevent the RoGator from rolling.
II. Remove the rubber plug (Pos. 5) at the rear
wheel motors.
III. Place the spacer (60x60x8) (Pos. 9) on the
brake (Pos. 2). The spacer should be about
280 mm long. In the centre of the spacer
should be a hole with a diameter of 16.5 mm.
IV. Insert a M16 x 120 screw (Pos. 7) through
the spacer and turn the screw tightly into the
piston. Tighten the M16 nut (Pos. 8) nut until
the motor shaft (Pos. 1) can rotate freely.
The parking brake is now disengaged.
4. The vehicle must be in NEUTRAL.

5. Open the lock valve at the centre of the chassis.
6. The vehicle can be towed.
Lock Valves
The lock valves are closed. Position when driving.
Transport
IMPORTANT:
If transporting the vehicle on a
truck, put a cover on the engine exhaust pipe to
prevent damage to the turbocharger.
WARNING
!
To avoid contact with overhead
electrical power lines when
transporting vehicle, rotate the
antenna’s down and secure it in
place
.
If a machine problem cannot be repaired in the
field, it is recommended that the vehicle be trans-
ported on another vehicle and not towed.
Mobile Radio
CAUTION
!
Under certain conditions an an-
tenna must be installed on the
roof. An antenna cable can be
laid in the vicinity of the radio,
electric push -buttons or control
switches. If this recommenda-
tion is ignored, the driver will be
exposed to a higher dose of
radiation.
IMPORTANT: Avoid the possible influence of
the antenna cable on electronic circuitry near
the roof. The antenna base must be grounded.
IMPORTANT: Do not tamper with or modify the
engine in any way. In case of problems, please
contact Ag-Chem Europe b.v.
