3.9.1 Checks before driving
The check before departure is an important contribution to road safety. Before every trip, check
compliance with the operating conditions, traffic safety, and the regulations of the country of operation.
• Is the admissible total weight complied with? Note the permitted axle load, the permitted braking
load, and the permitted tire load capacity;
○
See 5 Axle load calculation
• Is the machine attached correctly?
• Can spreading material be lost while traveling?
○
Observe the filling level of the spreading material in the hopper.
○ The metering slide must be closed.
• Check the tire pressures and the function of the tractor brake system.
• Do the lighting and labeling on the machine comply with the national regulations for operation on
public roads? Ensure correct attachment.
3.9.2 Road travel with the machine
Handling, steering, and braking performance of the tractor are affected by the attached machine. For
example, an excessive weight of the machine will reduce the weight on the front axle of the tractor and
affect the steering.
• Adapt your driving to the modified driving characteristics.
• When driving, always ensure that there is sufficient visibility. If vision is restricted (e.g. when
reversing), another person is required to direct the driver.
• Observe the admissible maximum speed.
• Avoid sudden turns when driving uphill or downhill or across a slope. The change in the center of
gravity may increase the danger of tipping. Special care is to be particularly applied when driving
on uneven, soft ground (e.g. when entering fields, curbs).
• Arrest sideways movement of the lower link of the three-point linkage to prevent the machine from
swinging.
• Passengers are prohibited on the machine during transport and operation.
