2.4 Instructions for safe use
To ensure safe operation of the tractor, read this manual carefully before driving
the tractor. The instructions, warnings, messages and notices on the stickers and
in the manual must always be observed.
Yard tractors are designed for the frequent moving of loads using trailers. The
yard tractor is intended primarily for moving trailers using a fifth wheel system that
is movable in vertical sense.
Drivers must inspect the tractor visually before commencing work and check the
instrument panel immediately after starting and regularly while driving.
Instruments must display their normal values. A number of data plates showing
information about maximum permissible axle and trailer loads are located inside
the cabin.
Every driver using this tractor must be suitably trained and qualified in the use of
the equipment and must be fully acquainted with local site regulations and
procedures. Depending on the equipment of the tractor and the nature of the
work, the training should cover all equipment and all tasks that must be done by
the driver.
Terberg Benschop recommends that the driver wears at least safety clothing that
enhances driver visibility and safety shoes with reinforced toe caps and soles.
The minimum clothing requirements depend on local site regulations.

(See also the "WARNING STICKERS" section).
NOTICE
Read this manual carefully before using the tractor and always
follow the safety and maintenance instructions.
Before driving off
Check vehicle lighting.
Never use a faulty tractor.
Always apply the parking brake before leaving the cabin.
Keep doors and windows closed during use to minimize the sound level inside the
cabin and to minimize the power usage for the heater and air conditioning
(especially for EV-vehicles).
The air conditioning will only operate efficiently if all cabin windows and doors are
closed.
Keep the cabin floor free from loose objects and clean to prevent slipping, tripping
and falling.
Use the (optional) sun visor to prevent blinding by sunlight.
Ensure that a clear field of vision is always maintained.
Always wear the seat belt provided during operation.
Always connect the trailer's brake hoses and lighting cables before driving off with
a coupled trailer.
Check visually that the tyres on the tractor and trailer are not damaged and
inflated correctly.
While driving
Always make sure that you are in driving position; in the driver’s seat with the seat
belt buckled up.
Ensure that maximum permissible loads and speeds are not exceeded.
