UNLESS IT IS CORRECTLY PROTECTED THE TRANSMISSION COULD CAUSE DEATH SINCE IT CAN
CATCH ON PARTS OF THE BODY OR CLOTHING

Check the reflectors, hazard flashers and/or projecting load indicators are installed when required and efficient. These
indicators must be installed correctly and easily seen by the drivers of other vehicles.

allow bystanders to ride on the machine.
Maximum transport speed of the implement is limited to 25-30km/h depending on the model of the machine
