ATTENTION
The trailer is also designed for transport of harvested crops and agricultural products
(volumetric or loose). It is permissible to transport other loads (timber, building materials
packed loads), on the condition of securing the load box against damage (abrasion of
paint covering, corrosion etc.).
DANGER
Load on trailer must be secured against moving or contaminating road during travel. If it
is impossible to properly secure the load, do NOT transport this type of material.
During loading the trailer the drawbar eye and the tractor hitch are subjected to great
vertical loading.
Bulk materials
Loading bulk materials is normally conducted with the use of loaders or conveyors and
possibly loading manually. Do not load bulk materials to a height greater than that of side
walls or extensions. On completion of loading, the load should be evenly spread over the
whole surface of the load box. When loading bulk materials, the walls and extensions should
be connected with linking cable. Secure cable release mechanism with cotter pin.
Oilseed rape or seeds of other plants of very small size or powder materials can be
transported provided the load box is properly sealed in places where gaps are bigger than
the seed diameter or other carried material. Profiled rubber seals, silicone sealers, plastic
wrap, rope or textile materials are recommended materials to provide sealing of the load box.
Some bulk loads (e.g. building materials, such as gravel or slag) may cause more rapid
damage to paintwork.
Loads of pieces or solid lumps
Loads of pieces or solid lumps are generally hard materials of significantly greater
dimensions than bulk loads (stones, coal, bricks and ballast). These materials without prior
preparation of the load box may cause indentation of the floor or walls and abrasion of
paintwork. In order to protect it, lay thick plywood, hard particle board, thick planks or other
materials of similar properties on the load box platform and possibly on walls and wall
