2.5 DRIVING ON PUBLIC ROADS
Be sure to check applicable regulations in your area since driving rules for o-road vehicles on public roads can vary between dierent
countries and even dierent regions in the same country.
In Sweden, o-road vehicle driving on public roads is regulated in the highway code (Trakförordningen 1998: 1276), chapter 5,
“Bestämmelser för trak med terrängmotorfordon och terrängsläp på väg” (regulations for driving o-road motor vehicles and o-road
trailers on public roads).
This means that o-road vehicles and o-road trailers may not be driven on roads other than private roads, except in cases where an o-
road vehicle or an o-road trailer needs to cross aroad that is not private, in which case the vehicle may travel on the road for the shortest
possible distance. The same applies if, with respect to terrain conditions, it becomes necessary to drive on the road. In addition, the driver of
an o-road motor vehicle travelling o road must rst stop the vehicle before he/she drives onto the road. Other road users always have the
right of way. For further details, please refer to the full legislation and always be aware of the regulations that apply to the local region.
2.6 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
We want to be able to enjoy and protect our forests for the future. With this in mind, we urge all users to show great respect to the
environment. The Alstor was designed to have aminimum impact on nature and the environment. Its low ground pressure reduces
damage due to driving and minimises ground compaction. It is important that you, as the operator, pay special attention to sensitive land
and plan your journeys to minimise the eects on nature as you drive. To the greatest extent possible, use eco-friendly products for your
Alstor, e.g. cleaning agents, oils, etc. Always ensure the proper recycling of waste products.
2.7 CRANE OPERATION
Aseparate instruction manual for the crane has been appended to the Alstor instruction manual.
Be sure to carefully read this before operating the crane. Pay special attention to the safety precautions.
For handling instructions, please read the section on crane operation in the crane’s instruction manual.
