¾ Pay attention to the permissible transport
widths and heights. Pay attention to the trans-
port height when passing under bridges and
low hanging overhead power lines.
¾ Do not exceed the permissible axle loads, tyre
load bearing capacities and total weights, in
order to ensure su󰘲cient steering and braking
capabilities. The front axle must be loaded
with at least 20 % of the tractor weight.
For road transport the machine must be set to
transport position. The machine must have been
folded up and secured, see chapter "Folding"
and "Connecting and transport position".
¾ Clean soil from the folding areas before fold-
ing up. Otherwise there could be damage to
the mechanics.
¾ If present: Secure the hydraulic cylinders on
undercarriage and drawbar in transport posi-
tion against uncontrolled movements using
aluminium clips, see chapter “Connecting and
transport position”.
¾ Assemble lighting, warning and protective
features and check the function.
¾ Before road travel clean the entire machine
from picked up dirt.
Handling is a󰘯ected by the connected equip-
ment.

Always match the travel mode to the
road conditions to avoid accidents and
damage to the undercarriage.
Consider your personal abilities, carriage
