Moving on road: pull-type windrow rotary rake
can be moved on road only if it is connected to
the towing hook; whereas the mounted one
must be lifted by using the hydraulic lift, until the
lowest section results at 40/50 cm from the
ground. In both cases, the following obligations
must be complied with:
- rear overall dimensions: the operator must
apply special panels to the windrow rotary
rake (either if it is mounted or pull-type), to
highlight the tractor rear dimensions. They
must be applied on the three visible sides
and be retro-reflecting and fluorescent with
yellow and red stripes, and be approved.
Moreover, transversal dimensions of the
equipment must never be higher than the
tractor's shape and therefore, it must always
assume the set transport configuration
(with side protection screens closed and
teeth-holder bar removed) as indicated in the
fig.4.
- signaling devices: the tractor must be
mandatory provided with the light flashing
device (yellow or orange) always operating.
Moreover, visual signal and lighting devices
of tractor must be repeated or moved if
dimensions of the windrow rotary rake do not
allow visibility. In this case it will be
necessary to install on the equipment rear
part a special light bar;
- weight: the total mass of the machinery
(tractor with windrow rotary rake) must not
exceed 30% above the normal mass of the
tractor, indicated on its vehicle registration.
The tractor must always move at moderate
speed, especially on slopes, because the
rear weight may cause loss of control;
- laws: however, it is recommended to know
and comply with laws on road circulation in
your Country.
During the machinery on-road moving (tractor
with windrow rotary rake), the operator in the
cabin must observe the following precautions:
- must not take passengers on the tractor;
- must not transport persons or animals on the
equipment;
- PTO must always be disengaged.
