.
Watch out for possible quick tilting of the body (the front part of the body rises upwards) if the centre of
gravity of the load is shifted behind the axes of the hinges.
The rear end
1
of the trailer is tiltable and removable. The securing against tilting when driving is provided by means of
two securing levers
2
. The end can be removed by sliding the hinges to the right and back in the direction of the arrows in

The maintenance, adjustment, cleaning and repairs of the device must be performed when the device is at a
standstill.
In order to secure long-term satisfaction with our product, it is necessary to provide it with due care and maintenance. By
providing regular maintenance you will prevent its rapid wear and you will secure correct operation of all its parts.
Observe all instructions concerning maintenance and adjusting intervals. We recommend that you keep records of operating
hours and the conditions under which the device is used (these may be useful for servicing centres). We recommend that you
have the post-season maintenance implemented by one of our authorized service centres; the same applies to standard

5.1.2 Brake adjustment
Monitor the braking efficiency carefully. If low efficiency is observed, it is necessary to adjust the
brakes immediately.
To remedy low efficiency, tighten the brake rope according to item 4. a 5. in the Chapter 4.1.1.
5.1.3 Tyres
Check regularly the condition of the tread pattern and sides of the tyres.
In case of any crack or bulge, the trailer must be taken out of operation and the tyre replaced with a
faultless one.
The worst for the tyres is to overload them. The tyres are the most sensitive point of the entire trailer and therefore the
payload must not be exceeded.
The recommended pressure is
300 kPa
, the maximum permitted pressure when utilizing the maximum load capacity of the
trailer is
330 kPa
.
