2.1.8 MAINTENANCE

• During the warranty period, any repairs may only be carried out by Warranty
Service authorised by the manufacturer. After the expiry of the warranty period it
is recommended that possible repairs to the hook trailer be performed by
specialised workshops.
• In the event of any fault or damage whatsoever, do not use the trailer until the
fault has been fixed.
• While performing maintenance work, use proper, close-fitting protective clothing,
gloves, protective shoes, protective goggles and appropriate tools.
• Any modification to the trailer frees the manufacturer from any responsibility for
damage or detriment to health, which may arise as a result.
• The trailer can only be stood on when it is absolutely motionless and the tractor
engine is switched off. Tractor and trailer should be immobilized with parking
brake and chocks should be placed under the trailer wheels. Ensure that
unauthorised persons do not have access to the tractor cab.
• Regularly check the condition of nut and bolt connections, in particular
connections of drawbar eye and wheel nuts.
• Service inspections should be carried out according to the frequency specified in
this Operator's Manual.
• Before beginning repair works on hydraulic or pneumatic systems reduce oil or air
pressure completely.
• Servicing and repair work should be carried out in line with the general principles
of workplace health and safety. In the event of injury, the wound must be
immediately cleaned and disinfected. In the event of more serious injuries, seek a
doctor's advice.
• Repair, maintenance and cleaning work should be carried out with the tractor
engine turned off and the ignition key removed. Tractor and trailer should be
immobilized with parking brake and chocks should be placed under the trailer
wheels. Ensure that unauthorised persons do not have access to the tractor cab.
