1.16 Tyre Safety
Tyre changing can be dangerous and should
be performed by trained personnel using
correct tools and equipment.
When inflating tyres, use a clip-on chuck
and extension hose long enough for you to
stand to one side–not in front of or over tyre
assembly. Use a safety cage if available.
When removing and installing wheels, use
wheel-handling equipment adequate for
weight involved.
1.17 Safety Lights and
Devices
Slow-moving tractors and towed implements
can create a hazard when driven on public
roads. They are difficult to see, especially
at night.
Use flashing warning lights and turn signals
whenever driving on public roads. Use lights
and devices provided with implement.
1.18 Road Traffic Safety
When driving on public roads, tracks and
areas, it is important to observe the relevant
local road traffic laws as well as the specific
regulations relating to this machine.
Pay attention to the permitted axle loads,
tyre carrying capacity, and total weight in
order to maintain adequate braking and
steerability.
Passengers on the machine are strictly
forbidden!
Maximum transport speed for implement
is 30 kph or 20 mph. Some rough terrains
require a slower speed. Sudden braking can
cause a towed load to swerve and upset.
