box platform and possibly on walls and
wall extensions. Non-compliance with the
instructions provided could invalidate the
warranty. Loading of material in pieces or
solid lumps must be from a low height. The
load must not fall with great force on the
floor of the load box, even if it is protected.
DANGER
If it is necessary to carry permitted hazardous mate-
rials, acquaint yourself with the regulations concern-
ing transport of hazardous materials in force in the
given country and also the regulations of the ADR
agreement.
Carefully read the information leaflets provided
by the load manufacturer and observe the instruc-
tions for transporting and handling the load. Ensure
whether during loading work it is necessary to apply
additional personal protection (masks, rubber gloves
etc.)
According to the European ADR agreement
concerning the international road transport
of hazardous materials, the transport of
this type of load (defined in detailed by
this agreement) is prohibited with the use
of agricultural trailers. The only exception
are plant protection chemicals and arti-
ficial fertilisers, which may be transported
on agricultural trailers on the condition that
they are transported in the appropriate
packaging and in quantities envisaged by
the ADR agreement.
HIGH VOLUME LOADS

HAZARDOUS LOADS
as hay, pressed cubes or bales, straw,
green forage, etc., are recommended to
be loaded using appropriate equipment:
bale grippers, forks, etc. The load can be
loaded even above the extensions of the
load box with a special attention paid to the
stability of the trailer and proper fastening
and securing of the load. Remember that
higher loading has a negative effect on
trailer stability.
LOADS IN PACKAGING
Loads transported in packaging (boxes,
sacks) must be laid closely side-by-side
beginning from the front side of the trailer.
If it is essential to lay several layers, par-
ticular groups should be stacked alter-
nately (in block system). The load must
be laid tightly together and on the whole
surface of the trailer floor. Otherwise, the
load will move during travel. Due to the
trailer design (the load box designed for
the transport of agricultural crops and
products, lack of load securing points),
materials in packaging may not be loaded
above the top of the walls or extensions
of load box. If the trailer is equipped with
net extensions, the height of the load layer
may not be higher than 600 mm, i.e. it may
not exceed the upper edge of the side
walls. A higher load level may move during
travel and cause significant damage to the
net extensions and the load may spill.
