Prior to Operation 7. When driving on the roads, hitch the safety chain (7) on to the side mower units. The safety chain (7) serves simultaneously as a restraint for the side mower units (Fig. 47). 8. Check the mower unit for roadworthiness and operational safety.

Maintain a sufficient distance between the mower unit and the ground. Ensure adequate vision when driving. If the field of vision is restricted by the mower unit, a person to direct at road crossings and openings will be required.
Driving on public roads When driving on public roads, observe the relevant road traffic regulations. Do not exceed the technically permissible axle loads and total weight. If the distance between the rear edge of the harvester's steered wheel and the front edge of the mower unit is more than 3.5 m, the restrictions in field of vision which arise when exiting yards, or at road crossings and openings, must be compensated, if need be, by suitable operational measures such as someone to direct.
Side lights / warning signs Side lights and warning signs must be attached facing forwards in accordance with regulations.
