Changes to the trailer must only be carried out following consultation and with express
permission of the manufacturer.
Use only original replacement parts.
Follow the maintenance intervals stipulated in this manual.
In addition to this manual, the operating instructions included for third-party components
must be observed.
Upon first-time start-up and when different wheel and tyre combinations are used, the
spacing between the tyres and frame is to be checked on vehicles with a steering axle,
and adjusted as necessary.
Note the permitted axle load, support load, total weight and maximum speed.
Notes on driving with the transfer trailer (ULW)
The handling characteristics of a towing vehicle are influenced by the coupled trailer.
Always adjust the vehicle speed to the local conditions.
Avoid sudden cornering when driving uphill and downhill as well as when crossing a
slope.
When driving uphill, use a low gear. Never change or disengage gears on a gradient.
Stop the towing vehicle immediately if a brake fault occurs.
Attend to faults immediately.
There is a risk of tipping when driving on inclines.
The driving style must be adapted to the terrain and ground conditions.
The operator workstation is the driver's seat of the towing vehicle.
The tractor is to be fitted with ballast weights in order to ensure steering and braking
capability (at least 20% of the vehicles empty weight on the front axle).
Carrying persons on the trailer is prohibited.
Climbing on and off safely
Careless behaviour can result in falling when climbing on and off the machine. Persons climbing
on to the machine without using the designated access points may slip, fall and suffer serious
injuries.
The safety of access points can be impaired by dirt and debris.
Always ensure that access points are clean and in working condition.
Never climb on or off the machine while it is moving.
Never jump off the machine.
Only climb on and off the machine via the access points specified in the operating
instructions.
Notes on coupling and uncoupling the ULW
There is an injury risk when coupling devices to the tractor.
When coupling, do not step between the trailer and the tractor while the tractor is
moving backwards.
Nobody must enter the area between the tractor and the trailer unless the vehicles have
been secured against rolling away with the parking brake and/or wheel chocks.
Only connect and disconnect the drive shaft when the engine is switched off.
Attach the trailer coupling to the tractor so that, when the trailer is attached, there is
sufficient space between the drive shaft and the drawbar, especially during tight turns.
Before starting to drive, release the parking brake. (Turn the crank inward.)
