Transport runs
10 Transport runs
A transport run is a journey from or to the machine application
location in loaded or unloaded condition.
Always drive in such a way that you always have complete control
over tractor and mounted / hitched machine:
• Take into consideration your own ability, the roadway, curve,
traffic, view and weather conditions, the handling features of the
tractor and the influence of the mounted / hitched machine.
Before carrying out transport drives:
• For transport runs please also take heed of the information in the
chapter "Basic safety instructions", page 34.
• Before transport runs check that:
ο the correct connection of the supply lines,
ο the lighting system for damage, functions and cleanliness,
ο the brake and hydraulic system for noticeable defects,
ο whether the parking brake is fully released,
ο the brake system is functioning correctly.
WARNING
There is a risk of injury to exposed persons from being crushed,
drawn-in, trapped or by impact, if tractor and machine tip over as
a result of insufficient stability!
• Never drive round narrow bends at too high a speed.
• Avoid sudden turns when driving on slopes as well as on drop
line and parallel horizontal lines across hill (danger of buckling
sideways!).
WARNING
Improper use of the tractor can give rise to hazards where the
former causes failure of components, inadequate stability and
insufficient tractor steering and braking ability!
Observe the regulations on maximum payload of the mounted /
hitched machine and the permissible axle and tongue loads of the
tractor. If necessary, drive with the machine only half-filled.
WARNING
There is a high risk of injury to exposed persons if hydraulic
functions are accidentally actuated during transport drives!
• switch off the control unit,
• switch off the oil circulation between tractor and machine,
• always switch off the PTO drive shaft if an on-board hydraulic
system is available.
