4.1 Towing the machine
Towing with a too light tractor can cause accidents! For towing
purposes, use a machine that is at least as heavy as the machine
you intend to tow. Check the attachment points before and after
towing for possible damage.
The hydrostatic drive could be damaged during the towing pro-
cess! Do not start the machine by towing it. The engine cannot be
started by towing, but the drive can be damaged.
To avoid damage to the hydrostatic drive the machine may not be
towed further than 0.1 km. The towing speed may not exceed
2km/h.
Before you are permitted to tow a machine that is equipped with
a hydrostatic drive, you have to establish a short-circuit connec-
tion between the high-pressure side and the low-pressure side of
the variable displacement pump.
For towing purposes, use a machine that is at least as heavy as
the machine you intend to tow. Always connect the machines with
a suitable towing device.
Connecting towing equipment to the wrong point on a machine
may damage the machine. Use the intended towing points for the
connection of the towing device.
On the front frame, the towing device has to be fastened to the
marked towing eye. On the rear frame, the towing device can be
fastened to the towing pin.
Trailer tow hitch option
