Operating Instructions
Operation
Before Starting to Drive
When driving on public highways, observe the regulations
of the highway code.
•
When following a curve with a trailer or other attach-
ments, don't forget to take the added length and drag into
consideration.
DANGER
Parts of implements posing a danger to traffic
must be covered before driving or identified
with warning signs.
•
Switch off the differential lock when travelling along a
curve.
•
When driving on slopes, drive downhill if possible; if
you have to turn, turn only when driving uphill.
•
On steep slopes you can improve traction by acti-
vating the differential lock.
•
Drive across slopes only in accordance with the notes
at the end of this chapter.
Driving Safety Rules
•
Drive the tractor only from the driver's station with the
cab doors closed.
•
Always adjust your speed to the driving conditions
and the load you are carrying.
•
Never drive downhill without having the tractor in gear
or with the engine stopped.
•
Before driving, check that no-one is standing in the
immediate vicinity of the vehicle.
•
The driving behaviour of the tractor is strongly affec-
ted by the weight and swing range of the implements,
trailers and, if fitted, ballasting. Therefore drive slowly
with heavy equipment and take the longer braking
distance into consideration.
