ment of several people at once, carrying out synchro-
nised manoeuvres between the tractor driver and the
operators on the ground, which - if badly organised
- could result in accidents.

WARNING
The work vehicle must only ever be coupled to a
tractor with an appropriate power rating which is
equipped with a lift that complies with the regula-
tions in force, observing the maximum weight limit
on the rear axle and the gross vehicle weight (see
tractor user manual).
Assess whether ballast is required at the front of the
tractor to prevent it rearing up and losing stability
during driving.
Check that the work vehicle coupling to the tractor at
the third point of the hitch is securely locked so that
it cannot work loose.
