4.1. Towing the machine
WARNING
Towing with a tractor of insufficient weight may cause acci-
dents! Perform towing using a machine weighing at least as
much as the machine that you want to tow off.
CAUTION
Towing to start the engine will damage the hydrostatic drive
system! Do not give the machine a tow to start the engine.
This will not start the engine, but may damage the hydro-
static drive system.
To avoid damage to the hydrostatic drive system, do not tow the
machine for more than 1 km. The towing speed must not exceed
2 km/h.
Perform towing using a machine weighing at least as much as the
machine that you want to tow off. Connect both machines with
appropriate towing attachments.
CAUTION
Towing attachments fastened to inappropriate points may
damage the machine! Only fasten the towing attachment to
the points provided for this purpose.
At the front part of the machine, fasten the towing attachment at
the marked eyes. At the rear part of the machine, fasten the tow-
ing attachment at the hitch.
Before you tow a machine with a hydrostatic drive system, estab-
lish a short-circuit connection between the high-pressure side and
the low-pressure side of the variable pump. For this purpose, turn
the high-pressure valves in the valve block about 2 revolutions.
