Take care when turning on slopes!
DANgER
Danger to life exists through the tractor/trailer tipping
on an slope, especially in the transport position and
when cornering.
•
Reduce general speed accordingly, espe-
cially when cornering.
•
Drive backwards on the slope rather than
carry out a risky turning manoeuvre.
The driving characteristics of the tractor are influenced
by the weight (G) of the folding section. This can lead to
dangerous situations, especially on slopes.
Danger of tipping exists
• during hydraulic lifting of folding sections
- especially if the folding section positioned uphill is
swivelled up first. As a result, the centre of gravity of
the tractor/trailer unit shifts downhill and the weight
force (G) acts eccentrically.
