Towing equipment
For the maximum permissible load of the hitch, see 'Maximum permissible hitch load' chapter in the
Specifications section.
Maintain a suitable speed taking into account the weight of the load towed or carried by the tractor
and the inclination of the surrounding terrain, remembering that the braking distances will be greater
than that of a unloaded tractor. Towed semi-trailers or trailers with brakes or without brakes that
exceed the specified technically permissible maximum authorized weight or that are towed at too high
speed may cause the loss of the control of the unit.
Always take into account the total weight of the implement and its load.
If any mounted implement or trailer / semi-trailer is attached to the tractor, make sure all
controls are in the neutral position, the parking brake is applied, the engine is switched off, first gear
is engaged (if the tractor has a mechanical transmission) and the key from the starter switch is
removed, before leaving the driver's seat. If the tractor is not parked on level ground, ALWAYS
secure the wheels of the tractor and the trailer with wedges. Further information on safe working
rocedures can be found in the 'Parkin
the tractor' chapter in the safet
chapter in this manua
The recommended way to transport a damaged tractor is to transport it on a low-load trailer. Always
attach the tractor to the low-load trailer with a chain. Before transporting the tractor on a low-load
trailer or on a railway wagon, make sure that the engine cover, door, openable roof (if available) and
windows are closed and securely fastened. Never tow the tractor at a speed higher than 10 km/h. In
this case, the operator must remain in the operator's seat to drive and brake the tractor.
Falling object protective structure (FOPS)
The term F.O.P.S refers to structure installed on the tractor intended to reduce the risk to the operator of
injury from falling objects during normal use of the vehicle.
Important:
This tractor is equipped with a FOPS.
The energy level of drop test is 1365J.
Operator Protective Structure (OPS)
The term OPS refers to a protective structure installed on a tractor in order to minimise risk of operator injury
caused by objects penetrating into the operator position area.
Danger: This tractor is not equipped with an OPS. If work must be performed in areas subject
to the risk of the penetration of objects into the operator position, consult your dealer before starting
work so that the tractor can be equipped with an appropriate protective structure.
