3.27 Towing the machine
A machine that has become inoperable can be towed by another vehicle
for short distances.
For distances longer than 500 m, the machine must be loaded for further
transport.
WARNING
Spring-operated brake out of function!
Severe injury or death due to machine rolling away.
■
Prevent the machine from rolling away with chocks before
releasing the spring-operated brake.
■
Do not attach the machine for towing unless at the points intended
for this.
■
Use a towing vehicle with enough pulling power.
■
Tow machine only with low speed 1 km/h (0.6 mph).
■
Only tow the machine for short distances (max. 500 m).
N O T E
Towing of the machine requires sufficient knowledge of the
functioning of the hydrostatic travel drive and the operation of
the spring-operated brake.
Only specialist personnel with appropriate training may release
the spring-operated brake and depressurise the hydraulic
system. If this is not possible, the machine must be towed while
working against its own resistance. Alternatively, the machine
can be hoisted out of dangerous situations ( see page 56 ).
Only allow towing to be performed by persons with towing
experience, who have been informed of the dangers.
Necessary towing tool
■
Towing bar (normal towing)
Use a towing bar with adequate pulling power (at least the operating
weight of the machine) for a normal case of use on a flat surface with
the spring-loaded brake released.
■
Towing ropes or chains (for towing the machine out of
dangerous situations)
Towing ropes or chains with sufficient pulling power (at least double
the machine's operating weight) for towing the machine up slopes
and/or with the spring-operated brake still applied.
