DANGER
Incorrect application of securing measures may cause an accident.

1.5.2 INDEPENDENT TRANSPORT BY THE USER

In the event of independent transport by the user after purchase of the trailer, the user must
read the trailer Operator's Manual and adhere to the recommendations contained therein.
Independent transport involves towing the trailer with own agricultural tractor to destination.
During transport adjust travel speed to the prevailing road conditions, but do not exceed the
maximum design speed.
IMPORTANT!
When transporting independently, the user must carefully read this operator's manual and
observe its recommendations.

1.6 ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS

A hydraulic oil leak constitutes a direct threat to the natural environment owing to its limited
biodegradability. The negligible solubility of hydraulic oil in water does not cause extreme
toxicity of organisms living in the aquatic environment. The formation of a film of oil on the
water may be the direct cause of physical action on organism, perhaps causing change of
oxygen values in the water because of lack of direct contact of air with the water. An oil leak
into water reservoirs may however lead to a reduction of the oxygen content.
While carrying out maintenance and repair work, which involves the risk of an oil leak, this
work should take place on an oil resistant floor or surface. In the event of oil leaking into the
environment, first of all contain the source of the leak, and then collect the leaked oil using
available means. Remaining oil should be collected using sorbents, or by mixing the oil with
sand, sawdust or other absorbent materials. The oil pollution, once gathered up, should be
kept in a sealed, marked, hydrocarbon resistant container. The container should be kept
away from heat sources, flammable materials and food.
