ROAD CONDITIONS
Road behaviour, steering and braking ability are influenced by the assembled tools.
Always drive at a moderate speed, especially on uneven surfaces and steep slopes, to avoid
unbalancing.
The front axle of the tractor is lightened in relation to the weight attached at the time of coupling to the
chipping machine: the front axle load must be at least 20% of the tractor's unladen weight.
ATTENTION!
The traffic regulations in force in the country of use must be strictly adhered to.
If the trailed machine conceals the lighting equipment of the tractor to which it is
attached by its shape, it must be equipped with a rear light bar.
When transferring by road, it is necessary to place the loading duct in the folded position.
ATTENTION!
During transport with the machine raised, always ensure that the lift control lever
is locked to prevent accidental lowering of the machine.
In addition to complying with the regulations, it should be remembered that when driving on public
roads, great attention must be paid, in addition to any special requirements noted in the tractor's
registration certificate, to the choice of an appropriate transfer speed, especially with carry-type
equipment with strong rear overhangs or when the road is crowded, winding or sloping.
ATTENTION!
When driving on the road, the yellow or orange flashing light device fitted on the
tractor must always remain in operation even during the daytime.
When travelling on the road, do not exceed the speed prescribed by the Highway Code in force in the
country in which you are using the machine, and in any case do not exceed 40 km/h as a maximum
limit.
