SECTION 2 Pronar T672 T672/1 them against falling. The above procedure should be performed by at least two persons. • In the final phase of folding the tarpaulin cover, at all times hold with one hand the top of the front frame or other permanent structural element. Non-compliance with this rule can put the user at risk of falling.
Pronar T672 T672/1 SECTION 2 • Only machines built on a double axle chassis with permissible total weight described in table (1.3) may be hitched to the trailer. Permissible total weight of linked vehicle is dependent upon the trailer version.
SECTION 2 Pronar T672 T672/1 with skin wash the area of contact with water and soap. Do NOT apply organic solvents (petrol, kerosene). • Use the hydraulic oil recommended by the Manufacturer. • After changing the hydraulic oil, the used oil should be properly disposed of. Used oil or oil, which has lost its properties, should be stored in original containers or replacement containers resistant to action of hydrocarbons.
Page 32
Pronar T672 T672/1 SECTION 2 • Ensure that during unloading / loading or raising the load box nobody is near the trailer. Before tipping load box ensure that there is visibility and make certain that there are no bystanders. • The trailer is not intended for transporting people, animals or hazardous materials.
SECTION 2 Pronar T672 T672/1 • Do NOT tip the loaded load box when the sides are closed. • Lower the load box before proceeding to deal with a malfunction. If it is necessary to raise the load box then secure it against dropping with the aid of supports. The load box may not be loaded, and the trailer must be connected to a tractor and secured with the aid of wedges and also immobilised with the parking brake.
Page 34
Pronar T672 T672/1 SECTION 2 FIGURE 2.1 Method of placing wedges (1) securing wedge, (2) wheel of rear axle • Do NOT move off or drive when load box is raised. • Prior to moving off make sure that tipping pins connecting the loadbox and the lower frame and the side wall hinge pins are secured against falling out.
Page 35
SECTION 2 Pronar T672 T672/1 • While driving on public roads the trailer must be fitted with a certified or authorised reflective warning triangle. • Periodically drain water from the air tank in pneumatic system. During frosts, freezing water may cause damage to pneumatic system components.

The warning sign (1) should be attached using the specifically prepared holder (2), riveted to the rear wall of the load box.
SECTION 2 Pronar T672 T672/1 inspection should be repeated individually if a wheel has been removed from the wheel axle. • Avoid potholes, sudden manoeuvres or high speeds when turning. • Check the tyre pressure regularly. Pressure and tyres should be also checked after the whole day of intensive work.
Page 38
Pronar T672 T672/1 SECTION 2 • Before beginning work requiring raising of load box, it must be emptied and secured by supports to prevent accidental falling. The trailer must at this time be hitched to the tractor and secured with wedges and parking brake.
