Road transport
Ensuring road safety
The machine must conform to current national traffic regulations if you
intend to drive with it on public roads. Ensure the following:
•
Lighting, warning and protective equipment must be fitted.
•
The permissible transport widths and weights, axle loads, tyre
load-bearing capacities, laden weights and national speed restric-
tions must be complied with.
•
The maximum permissible road transport speed of 50 km/h must
be complied with.
•
Before driving on public roads, fold in all deflector bars and rotors
and secure the machine.
•
All tine supports which have tips that point at right angles to the
direction of travel and which are at a height of less than 2 metres
must be safeguarded using the tine guards provided.
»Attaching the tine guard«, page 62.
•
The machine should only be towed by agricultural or forestry
tractors.
The empty weight of the tractor must be greater than the weight of the
machine. The driver and keeper of the vehicle are liable should these
conditions not be observed.
Close the ball valve
Close the ball valve before driving on the road. If the ball valve is open
and there is an operating error, the machine may drop or swing out
unexpectedly. This could cause traffic accidents and accidents with
fatal consequences.
Check tyre pressures
Check tyre pressure on a regular basis. Incorrect tyre pressures
reduce the service life of a tyre and cause unstable driving character-
istics. Accidents with serious or fatal injuries may be caused as a
result.
Altered driving and braking performance
Driving and braking characteristics are altered when the machine is
coupled or hitched to the tractor. When cornering, take the overall
width and balancing weight of the machine into consideration. Adapt
your driving speed accordingly. A driving style which is not adapted to
conditions can cause accidents. Accidents with serious or fatal injuries
may be caused as a result.
Always switch off the pilotbox for transportation
Always switch off the pilotbox for road travel and transportation. If the
pilotbox is switched on and there is accidental actuation of the
hydraulics, the machine can swivel into the oncoming traffic. Traffic
accidents or accidents with serious or fatal injuries may be caused as
a result.
