INTRODUCTION

• This manual contains information regarding the use, setting and operation of the big square balers CLAAS QUADRANT 2200, QUADRANT 2200 ROTO CUT, QUADRANT 2200 ROTO CUT HD and QUADRANT 2200 FINE CUT Provided you follow the advice on the care and servicing of your machine you will be rewarded with reliable operating efficiency and long
• service from your square baler. We recommend that you allow your local CLAAS Dealer to overhaul and service your big square baler immediately after the season, adhering to the recommended winter service schedule contained in this manual.
• Omissions of parts of a service, or incorrect adjustments lead to a drop in performance and cost valuable time. By correct servicing and operation you can make full use of the latest technical knowledge and experience in mechanised handling of forage and straw with which your machine has been designed, and thereby ensure reliability of your big square baler.

General notes
ROAD TRAFFIC REGULATIONS

• Road traffic regulations may vary between countries. In case of discrepancies between the instructions provided by the manufacturer and the traffic regulations of the relevant countries, the traffic regulations of the countries concerned apply.
• In addition to his driving license, the operator must always carry the copy of the vehicle type approval registration issued by the Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt (the federal motor vehicle executive) and two wheel chocks. When driving on public roads with the vehicle (baler), comply with the requirements stated under the letter C in the copy of the vehicle type approval
• registration (§ 18 section 5 StVZO) issued by the Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt (the federal motor vehicle executive). lf any part(s) of the vehicle (baler) is/are subsequently modified whose condition is/are prescribed or the operation of which (after being modified) could represent a hazard to other road users, then the vehicle type approval registration shall no longer be valid
• and application must be made for a new vehicle type approval registration. In this case the machine must be presented to the responsible motor vehicle safety inspection authority (TÜV) in order to obtain an expert opinion certificate (§ 19 section 2 StVZO). lf you are in any doubt as to whether this situation applies in your case, please contact us as manufacturers.
• lf the vehicle (baler) is drawn behind the prime mover (such as a tractor), the lighting cable and the air brake system (hydraulic brake system) must be connected and checked for proper function. The brake anti locking system (ABS system) equipped to large balers can only work if the baler is attached to a suitable machine.

Before starting to drive the condition of:
– the connection between pulling vehicle and baler
-the lighting equipment must be checked

If the hitched baler covers the registration plate that the vehicle owner has received for one of his prime movers, a representation of the registration plate with illumination must be attached to the baler. The motor vehicle construction and use (CUR) may be different in the individual countries. The regulations concerning the maximum speed specified in the highway code of the respective country must be strictly observed. However, the towed baler is only designed for a maximum speed of 40 km/h (25 miles/h), 60 km/h (38 miles/h) or 62 km/h (40 miles/h), depending on the axle unit. These speeds must not be exceeded
