INTRODUCTION

This manual applies to CLAAS
LEXION 580, type 586
LEXION 570, type 585 Combine Harvesters.

• It is primarily intended for the machine operator and contains information on using, setting and operating the machine. In general, texts and pictures apply to all machine models covered by this manual.
• The information given applies equally, except where reference is made to a particular model in captions to the pictures or in the main text.
• Operation and maintenance of important accessories is also covered by this manual. A separate Operator’s Manual is available for cutterbars.
• Please read the instructions which apply to the appropriate accessories on your machine. Provided all instructions regarding maintenance and care of your machine are followed, you can count on many years of reliable service.
• Please have your authorised CLAAS dealer carry out the recommended regular inspections. The neglecting of regular maintenance and proper machine operation lead to reduced performance and loss of time.
• If proper operation and careful maintenance is ensured, your combine harvester, which incorporates latest harvesting technology, will render you excellent service

General Information
ROAD TRAFFIC REGULATIONS

• In addition to his driving licence, the operator must always carry the copy of the vehicle type approval registration issued by the Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt (the Federal Motor Vehicle Executive).
• A warning triangle and, on machines over 4 t permissible total weight, at least one wheel chock must always be carried on the combine. When driving on public roads with the combine harvester comply with all the requirements stated under 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). On machines with excess width (width over the tyres),
• a vehicle type approval registration for individual vehicles (single expert opinion) and a special approval in accordance with § 70, Section 1, clauses 1 and 2 of the StVZO must be carried instead of the General Operating Permit. Furthermore, all the requirements stated in the vehicle type approval registration for individual vehicles and in the special approval must be observed.
• The issue of a special approval differs from country to country. The excess width must be marked in accordance with the regulations for the marking of road vehicles with excess width (e.g. two marker boards at the front and back, protective bar, two amber flashing warning beacons).
• If any part(s) of the combine harvester 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 motor vehicle safety inspection authority responsible (e.g. TÜV) in order to obtain an expert opinion certificate (§ 19 section 2 StVZO). If you are in any doubt as to whether this situation applies in your case, please contact us as manufacturers.
• If a transport vehicle for front end attachments is towed behind the combine harvester then the cable for the lighting system must be connected and the good condition of the lighting system assured. If the combine is equipped with a maize picker head or folding cutterbar, the regulations and requirements of the machine’s General Operating Permit must be observed, in particular the requirements concerning ballast weights and tyres

Registration

• As a self propelled working machine with a maximum speed of up to 20 km/h, the combine is not subject to registration and does not need to have licence plates fitted.
• The machine must be clearly and indelibly marked on the left-hand side with the Christian name and surname of the owner and his address.
• The towing of trailers in the trailer hitch when driving on public roads is not permitted. 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
