Automatic trailer coupling (option)
Only trailer couplings with EC acceptance or EC control marks are
certified for use on public roads in Germany (StVZO German road traffic
regulations).
Refer to and follow the National Type Approval (Germany) or the
Data Confirmation (Germany) for information on other requirements!
Get informed on and follow the legal regulations of your country!
The automatic ball hitch is used for tractor vehicles according to § 43
clause 4 of the StVZO (German road traffic regulations) in the Federal
Republic of Germany.
• Follow the regulations of the employer’s liability insurance associations
of your country when coupling or uncoupling a trailer.
• The attachments (trailer) and the ball hitch use are listed in the
National Type Approval (Germany) or the Data Confirmation
(Germany).
• Bear in mind the trailer and drawbar loads – see chapter 9 “Trailer
weight/drawbar load: trailer couplings (option)” on page 9-24.
• Have a damaged or malfunctioning trailer coupling immediately
repaired or replaced by an authorized service centre.
In order to ensure the required swivel angle when coupled, use the trailer
coupling only in connection with lugs in compliance with DIN 11026,
DIN 74053 (ISO 1102) or DIN 74054 (ISO 8755).
➥ See the nameplate B on the ball hitch and trailer draw-bar.
If the trailer coupling is equipped with a stabilizing feature A (hold-down
device), only lugs in compliance with DIN 74054 (ISO 8755) are allowed.
