6.1 Checking the suitability of the tractor
WARNING
Danger of breaking during operation, insufficient stability and
insufficient tractor steering and braking power on improper use
of the tractor.
• Check the suitability of your tractor, before connecting the ma-
chine to the tractor.
You may only connect the machine to tractors suitable for the
purpose.
• Carry out a brake test to check whether the tractor achieves the
required braking delay with the machine connected.
Requirements for the suitability of a tractor are, in particular:
• The approved total weight
• The approved axle loads
• The approved drawbar load at the tractor coupling point
• The load capacity of the installed tyres
• The approved trailer load must be sufficient
You can find this data on the rating plate or in the vehicle docu-
mentation and in the tractor operating manual.
The front axle of the tractor must always be subjected to at least 20%
of the empty weight of the tractor.
The tractor must achieve the brake delay specified by the tractor
manufacturer, even with the machine connected.
