placed under the wheels. Do NOT
leave unsecured trailer. In the event
of machine malfunction, pull over on
the hard shoulder avoiding any risk
to other road users and position re-
flective warning triangle according to
traffic regulations.
• When driving on public roads, the
trailer must be marked with a slow-
moving vehicle warning sign attached
to the rear wall of load box, if the
trailer is the last vehicle in the group.
• While driving on public roads the
trailer must be fitted with a certified or
authorised reflective warning triangle.
• When driving, comply with all road
traffic regulations, indicate an in-
tention to turn using indicator lamps,
keep all road lights and indicator lights
clean at all times and ensure they are
in good condition. Any damaged or
lost lamps or indicator lights must be
immediately repaired or replaced.
• Avoid ruts, depressions, ditches or
driving on roadside slopes. Driving
across such obstacles could cause
the trailer or the tractor to suddenly
tilt. This is of special importance be-
cause loaded trailer centre of gravity
is higher (especially a high volume
load), which reduces safety. Driving
near ditches or channels is dan-
gerous as there is a risk of the wheels
sliding down the slope or the slope
collapsing.
• Speed must be sufficiently reduced
before making a turn or driving on an
uneven road or a slope.
• When driving, avoid sharp turns es-
pecially on slopes.
• While driving on public roads, the hy-
draulic tailgate must be closed and
secured.
• Please note that the braking distance
of the tractor and trailer combination
is substantially increased at higher
speeds and loads.
• Monitor trailer behaviour when trav-
elling on an uneven terrain, and
adjust driving speed to road condi-
tions, slow down early enough when
turning.
• Prolonged
driving
ground may lead to loss of braking
efficiency.
• The trailer is designed for towing on
slopes of up to 8°. Driving the trailer
on steeper slopes may cause the
trailer to tip over as a result of loss of
stability.
