Attachments for EURO quickhitch
Important information on the quickhitch and attachments
The machine can be equipped with a standard or an
extended loader unit (option).
The type of loader unit installed on the machine is specified in the
machine’s model designation – see "Type labels" on page 3-26.
e.g. 357-00S = standard loader unit.
357-00L = extended loader unit.
Use only attachments that are certified for the respective loader unit
– see "Overview: Attachments for EURO quickhitch facility" on page 3-24.
In order to ensure machine stability, and to avoid damage
to the loader unit:
► Use only attachments that are certified for the existing quickhitch and
loader unit, and that are fitted with a load diagram
certified for the specific attachment.
► If uncertified attachments are installed, or if parts of the quickhitch or
attachment are subsequently modified or replaced, the operation
licence and the warranty become void.
► In addition to the Operator’s Manual, observe and instruct the operator
in all other generally applicable, legal and other mandatory regulations
relevant to accident prevention and environmental protection.
► Please contact your dealer if you require more information
on the quickhitch and the specific attachments.
If other attachments are installed and used, conformity (stability test) in
accordance with the EC machinery directive or the EN 474-3 standard
must be checked and documented by an authorized service center
– see chapter 5 “Fitting attachments from other manufacturers (opt)” on
page 5-95.
Remove attachments that are not certified for machine travel on public
roads in Germany, load them on a separate transport vehicle and
transport them to the job site.
