Operating instructions
Operation
Before starting to drive
When driving on public highways, observe the rules and
regulations of the highway code.
Driving safety rules
• Drive the vehicle only from the driver’s station with
the cab doors closed.
• Always adjust your speed to the driving conditions
and the load you are carrying.
• Never drive downhill without having the vehicle in gear
or with the engine stopped.
• Before driving, check that no-one is standing in the
immediate vicinity of the vehicle.
• The driving behaviour of the vehicle is strongly
affected by the weight and swing range of the imple-
ments, trailers and, if fitted, ballasting. Therefore
drive slowly with heavy equipment and take the longer
braking distance into consideration.
• When following a curve with a trailer or other implements,
do not forget to take the added length and drag into
consideration.
DANGER
Any parts of the implements posing a traffic
hazard must be covered before driving or
identified with warning signs.
• Switch off the differential lock in curves.
• When driving on slopes, always drive straight downhill
if possible; if you have to turn, turn only uphill.
• On steep slopes you can improve traction by activat-
ing the differential lock.
• Drive across slopes only in accordance with the notes
at the end of this chapter.
