3.10 TRANSPORT

If it becomes necessary to transport the machine for a long
distance, it can be loaded onto a railway wagon or a truck. For
this purpose, consult «Technical Data» for weight and specific
dimensions.
The latter are very useful to check the possibility of driving along
all types of roads. The machine is generally supplied in a
horizontal position with no packing material.
It is therefore necessary to use a system of hoisting with a crane
and cables, or chains of adequate capacity, hooking onto the
machine at the hoisting points marked with the «hook» symbol
(15, Fig. 4).
Before proceeding to the hoisting op- erations, make sure that
any any mo- bile elements of the machine are blocked. Make
sure to use a crane with an adequate hoisting capacity to lift
the machine. Hoist the machine with extreme caution and
transfer it slowly, without jerks or abrupt movements.
The operations of hoisting and trans- port can be very
dangerous if not carried out with the maximum caution;
persons not directly involved should be moved away. Clean,
evacuate the area and delimit the transfer zone. Check the
state, condition and suit- ability of the means at disposition. Do
not touch suspended loads, keep- ing them at a safe distance.
It most be further ascertained that the operational area is free
of obstacles and that there is sufficient «escape space»,
meaning an area which is free and secure into which one could
move rapidly in case a load should fall. The surface on which
the machine is to be loaded must be horizontal in or- der to
prevent possible shifting.
Once the machine is positioned on the vehicle, make sure that it
remains blocked in its position. Fasten the machine on the
platform of the vehicle by means of cables suitable for the mass
which must be blocked (see «Technical Data» for the weight).
The cables must be firmly fastened to the machine and pulled
taut to the anchorage point on the platform. Once transport has
been carried out and before freeing the machine from all its
fastenings, make sure that its state and position are such as not
to constitute danger. Remove the cables and proceed to
unloading with the same means and methods used for loading.

USE AND MAINTENANCE
Transit and transporting on the public highways
When driving on public roads, be sure to follow the highway
code of the country involved.
The tractor used for transporting the equipment must have the
powers shown in the Technical Data table; if necessary,
redistribute the total weights with the addition of ballasts to return
balance and stability to the whole assembly (page 48).
For displacements beyond the work area, the equipment must
be placed in the transportation position:
- Where provided for, make all the moving parts come within the
transport width, locking them with the safety devices (toolbars,
row marker arms, row marker discs, etc.).
- Road movements must be performed with all tanks empty.
- Any transport accessories must be provided with suitable signs
and guards.
When driving on the public roads, fit on the rear reflector triangles,
side lights and flashing beacon and always make sure that you
comply with the Highway Code and any other applicable
regulations.
Make sure that the machine dimensions during transfer phases
allow for safe transport when travelling in subways, along narrow
roads, near electrical lines, etc.
The seed-drill must only be transported by road with the tanks
and hoppers empty and at max speed of 25 km/h.
Before driving on to the public roads with the machine hitched
to the tractor, make sure that the devices listed above and/or
the slow vehicle signal and/or the projecting load signal op-
erate correctly. These indicators must be affixed to the rear of
the implement in a position where they can be clearly seen by
any other vehicle that drives up behind.
