1.
Danger from problematic driving dynamics!
The permissible loading range may be exceeded or undercut.
Personal injury may result from towing.
Damage to the machine and/or towing vehicle is possible.
➤ Do not couple up the machine at an angle to the towing vehicle.
➤ Ensure that the towbar is horizontal when coupled to the towing vehicle.
2. Adjust the towbar height to suit the height of the hitch on the towing vehicle.
Further information See chapter 6.4 for towbar height adjustment.
12.2.2.2 Coupling-up
Coupling machine with ball coupling (EU version)
To hitch up the machine, lower the open coupling onto the ball of the towing vehicle so that it clicks
into place. The coupling is fully locked when the green locking indicator protrudes and is visible
from the side.

1.
There is considerable danger of injury caused by trapped fingers.
They can be trapped in the spring-loaded closing mechanism.
➤ Never place your fingers inside an open ball coupling.
➤ Always wear protective gloves.
2. Pull up the coupling handle.
The coupling opens.
3.
Risk of accident due to unhitching of the ball coupling during transport.
If the coupling is not fully closed the compressor can become uncoupled from the towing vehi‐
cle and cause an accident.
➤ Check correct coupling.
4. Place the open coupling over the towing vehicle ball hitch.
The weight on the coupling will cause it to audibly close. The coupling locks automatically.
Closing and locking is automatic.
5. Push the handle down to be certain of locking.
The coupling is fully locked when the handle is fully down and can be pushed no further.
6. Check correct coupling.
■ Check that the coupling handle cannot be pushed further down.
■ Check that the locking indicator is protruding and visible.
