Transporting baler on a public thoroughfare
Whenever a Baler is to be transported on a public
thoroughfare, the following preparation of the Baler
should be made:
• Position pickup in the transport position. Close
gate, raise pickup and converging wheels, if
equipped.
• Make sure warning devices, such as slow
moving vehicle emblem, reflectors, etc., are
installed, clean and are in good condition.
• Use flashinglights according to local laws. Keep
SMV emblem clean and visible. Replace SMV
emblem when damaged or sun faded.
• For reference purposes, measure the overall
width and height of the Baler. These
measurements are particularly important for
transporting along narrow roads and where
underpasses may be encountered.
• If the Baler hydraulic system is equipped with
an accumulator, make sure the accumulator
shutoff valve is closed.
