TOWING THE C OMBINE
Towing the combine is not recommended, but if it
must be towed, the following steps must be taken:
1. Move the hydrostatic lever into neutral and switch
off the rear-wheel drive.
2. Select neutral gear .
Model TX67: If not possible with the remote gear-
shifting, refer to Section 6 -- TROUBLESHOOT-
ING.
3. Release the handbrake.
Model TX67: If not possible with the remote park-
ing brake button, refer to Section 6 -- TROUBLE-
SHOOTING.
4. Tow at a maximum speed of 16 km/h.
5. Provide adequate warning signals to make other
road users aware that the combine is being towed.
ATTENTION:
Towing the combine with selected gear will im-
mediately lead to irreparable hydrostatic dam-
age.
IMPORTANT:
Should the combine become stuck in the mud,
always tow the combine with a cable or chain
attached to the traction axle.
Do not tow the combine with a cable attached
to the steering axle or to the frame.
CAUTION:
Do not use a rope. Should the rope break,
energy stored in it could cause bodily in-
jury.
