IMPORTANT!
Travel with a high-volume load by ruts, ditches, roadside slopes etc. constitutes
a great risk of overturning the trailer. Exercise particular caution.
• Please note that the braking distance of the tractor and trailer combination is
substantially increased at higher speeds and loads.
• Monitor trailer's behaviour when travelling on an uneven terrain, and adjust driving
speed to road conditions, slow down early enough when turning.
• Prolonged driving across steep ground may lead to loss of braking efficiency.
• When driving with the trailer without load, the front ladder and the rear ladder
should be folded.
4.5 UNLOADING
The trailer must be positioned to travel forwards and be hitched to the tractor. Unloading
should only take place when the trailer is placed on flat level surface and hitched to tractor.
DANGER
Ensure that during unloading nobody is in the vicinity of the load handled.
During work, keep a safe distance from overhead electric power lines.
It is recommended to unload the trailer using a loader, conveyor or forklift truck. During work,
ensure good visibility and exercise particular caution. Immobilise tractor and trailer with
parking brake and switch off tractor engine. Place wheel chocks under trailer wheel. Just
before unloading, remove all securing elements (belts, ropes, etc.). Unloading the trailer
should be carried out in accordance with the general principles of workplace health and
safety.
4.6 PROPER USE AND MAINTENANCE OF TYRES
When working with tyres, the trailer should be secured against rolling by placing chocks
under the wheels. Wheels can be taken off the trailer axle only when the trailer is not loaded.
