4.4 LOADING

Load box can be loaded only when the trailer is connected to the tractor and positioned
horizontally. Always aim at distributing the load uniformly in the load box. This will ensure
stability when travelling and correct axle and drawbar loads.
DANGER
The trans-shipment trailer maximum carrying capacity must not be exceeded.
People or animals must not be carried.
Before beginning loading make certain that the chute slide gate and inspection slides are
properly closed and secured. Take tarpaulin cover straps out of clamps on container sides
and roll tarpaulin cover to the left side of trans-shipment trailer. Tarpaulin cover should be
rolled while standing on the platform placed on the rear side wall. Rolled tarpaulin cover
should be supported by bracket bolted to load box side extension.
DANGER
Exercise particular care when rolling tarpaulin cover. During work use the rear platform
or ladder of appropriate height or ramp.
Loading work should be conducted by person having experience of this type of work.
During loading on the move maintain a constant distance between machines and
synchronise travel speed of both machines.
Trans-shipment trailer may be loaded travelling in parallel to the combine harvester.
Operators of both machines must synchronise travel speed and maintain particular care
during the operation. During such time trans-shipment trailer conveyor must be folded. Load
should be distributed evenly in load box.
If the trans-shipment trailer is equipped with a weighing system, it may be used to determine
the actual degree of container loading.
