    SECTION 2 Pronar T663/4 T663/4 SILO • Do NOT raise the load box if there is any danger whatsoever that the box will tip over. • Do NOT tip the loaded load box when the walls are closed. • Do NOT jerk the trailer forwards if load is bulky or reluctant to pour and does not unload.
  • Page 32 Pronar T663/4 T663/4 SILO SECTION 2 FIGURE 2.1 Method of placing chocks (1) wheel chock • Vertical load borne by the trailer drawbar eye affects the steering of the agricultural tractor. • Do NOT move off or drive when load box is raised.
  • Page 33 SECTION 2 Pronar T663/4 T663/4 SILO • The trailer is designed to operate on slopes up to 8° . Driving trailer across ground with steeper slopes may cause the trailer to tip over as a result of loss of stability.
  • Page 34: Tyres

    Pronar T663/4 T663/4 SILO SECTION 2 • Do NOT exceed the trailer's maximum carrying capacity. Exceeding the carrying capacity may lead to damage to the machine, loss of stability while driving, scattering of the load and danger while driving. The brake system is adjusted to the gross weight of the trailer, exceeding the weight limit causes drastic reduction of basic braking effectiveness.
  • Page 35: Maintenance

    SECTION 2 Pronar T663/4 T663/4 SILO • Check the tyre pressure regularly. Air pressure in tyres should be also checked during the whole day of intensive work.
