DRIVING ON A PUBLIC STREET
If it is required to drive on a public
street, it is mandatory to strictly re-
spect the Driving Code paying parti-
cular attention to the speed.
When driving on the street it is fun-
damental to respect the driving
code of the residing Country.
Any accessory used for the tran-
sportation must be equipped with
specific signals and adequate pro-
tections.
•
Before starting to drive, install optional lights.
•
It is mandatory to equip the machine with a yellow or
orange flashing light.
•
Before starting to drive on a public street from a non-
paved or dirty surface, it is required to clean the wheels
of the tractor carefully from any presence of mud.
•
When driving on a public street, the machine must be in
the transport position and the power socket of the trac-
tor must be unplugged.
•
The weight of the machine modifies the stability of the
combination tractor-sower, influencing the steering abi-
lity as well as the breaking ability, it is thus important to
proceed with a moderate speed.
•
In particular, always remember that the front shaft must
always be loaded with a weight equal to 20% of the com-
bination tractor-sower.
•
Verify the lifting ability and the stability of the tractor
through the following formula and, if needed, apply the
ballasts.

It is very important to remember that the road-holding
and the steering and breaking abilities may be in-
fluenced, even heavily, from the presence of the of any
equipment or bear that is being carried.
