INTRODUCTION:

This manual provides information on the use, adjustment and servicing of the CLAAS self-loading forage wagon. Follow the advice on correct maintenance and servicing in order to ensure maximum performance and a long service life of your machine.

• Also, have assembly of your machine and regular inspections carried out by your specialist workshop. Failure to carry out maintenance work, or incorrect operation will result in poor machine efficiency and loss of valuable time.
• By ensuring correct operation, and carrying out maintenance and service work with care, you will be able to make full use of the technical knowledge and the experience with which your self-loading forage wagon has been designed.

Preface :

OF SPECIAL IMPORTANCE :

Note that the CLAAS self-loading forage wagon is also referred to simply as the machine in the following chapters. The instructions set forth in this manual must be read carefully and followed by all persons concerned with the operation, maintenance, repair or inspection of this machine in order to prevent accidents.

• Read especially sections “Safety” and “Before Putting into Operation”. The use of spare parts, accessories and additional equipment which is not originally manufactured, and checked and released by CLAAS can have its negative effect on specific design features of the CLAAS machine or on its operability, thereby impair active and/or passive operating safety, as well as safety at work (accident prevention).
