Tires - PRONAR PT512 Operator's Manual

Pronar PT512
• While driving on public roads, an approved reflective warning triangle must be
available as the trailer's and a tractor's equipment.
• Periodically drain water from the air tank of the pneumatic system. Freezing water
may cause damage to pneumatic system components.
• Reckless driving and excessive speed may cause accidents.
• A load protruding beyond the edge of the trailer should be indicated according to
the road traffic regulations. Do not transport loads prohibited by the manufacturer.
• Never exceed the trailer's maximum allowable capacity. Doing so may damage
the machine, lead to loss of stability, scattering of the load while driving or other
types of danger. The brake system is adjusted to the total weight of the trailer;
exceeding the weight limit causes drastic reduction of basic braking effectiveness.
• Prolonged driving on steep ground may lead to loss of braking efficiency.
• Place the low speed vehicle warning plate on the rear wall, if the trailer is the last
vehicle towed
• The load must be uniformly distributed and must not obstruct visibility or hinder
driving.
• The load must be secured so that it cannot move or fall over.
• When reversing, use the assistance of another person. During maneuvering the
person must stay within a safe distance from the danger zones and be visible to
the tractor driver all the time.
• Do not climb on the trailer while travelling.
• Do not park the trailer on slopes.

• When working with tires, the trailer should be immobilized with parking brake and
secured against rolling by placing chocks under wheels. A wheel can be
dismounted only when the trailer is not loaded.
• Repair works on the wheels or tires should be carried out by persons trained and
entitled to do so. These works should be carried out by means of appropriate
tools.
