1.1.1 How to use this manual
This operator's manual is the original operator's man-
ual. In the following texts, it will be referred to simply as
the operator's manual.
This operator's manual is intended for all users and
provides information on the use, operation, adjust-
ment, maintenance, cleaning and transportation of the
machine.
Provided all instructions regarding proper maintenance
and operation of your machine are followed, you can
count on many years of reliable service.
Failure to perform maintenance or incorrect operation
lead to an increased safety risk, premature wear, a
reduction in performance, loss of earnings and time.
Have the post harvest check / annual check performed
regularly by your CLAAS dealer. A combination of the
prescribed maintenance work with the post harvest
check is recommended.
If you use the latest expertise and experience that
went into this machine, it will render you consistently
excellent service.
There is a separate operator's manual for front attach-
ments and hitched devices.
Texts and figures
Pictures and graphics are neutral. Differences are
pointed out by notes beneath the figure.
Texts are short and not machine-specific as far as pos-
sible. Differences are pointed out by intermediate
headings.
Different types of texts can easily be distinguished
from one another by their formats. The following for-
mats are distinguished:

Document structure based on subassemblies
As far as the contents permit, the chapters of this man-
ual are structured according to subassemblies. The
structure of these subassemblies is the same in all
chapters.
Different product groups have different document
structures based on subassemblies. CLAAS always
takes care to keep these document structures based
on subassemblies identical in any documents.
Search and find
The wanted subject can easily be found with the recur-
ring subassembly structure, using the table of contents
or the header line of this manual.
In addition, the index of this manual is a useful tool for
locating a specific subject. The index can be found on
the last pages of this manual.
Directions
Text elements such as front, rear, right and left always
apply to the direction of travel. In figures, the direction
of travel may be indicated by a direction arrow.
Optional equipment and accessories
Optional equipment includes equipment variants of the
machine where different variants are available, but
only one variant can be fitted.
Accessories are equipment items that may be addi-
tionally fitted to the machine, but are not included in
the standard scope of the machine.
Both terms designate possible variants. Standard
scopes and equipment variants may differ in other
countries.

1.1.4 Road traffic regulations
Road traffic regulations may vary between countries.
In case of discrepancies between the instructions pro-
vided by the manufacturer and the traffic regulations of
the relevant countries, the traffic regulations of the
countries concerned apply.
The information below mainly refers to the Federal
Republic of Germany.
Before driving on public roads, the self-propelled work-
ing machine usually needs an operating permit and a
special approval.
When driving the self-propelled working machine on
public roads and lanes, all conditions of the operating
permit and of the special approval must be observed.
Documents to be carried on the machine
In addition to his driving licence, the operator must
always carry the original of the operating permit and of
the special approvals.
Objects to be carried on the machine
A warning triangle must be carried on all self-propelled
working machines.
On all commercially used machines, a warning
triangle, a warning light and a first-aid box must be
carried along.
Furthermore, at least one wheel chock must be carried
on vehicles with an allowed total weight above 4 t.
CLAAS self-propelled working machines are usually
equipped with 1 rigid or 2 folding wheel chocks. These
may be used on the front wheels only.

Excess-width machines
In case of excess-width self-propelled working
machines (width exceeding 3 m across tyres), an indi-
vidual operating permit based on an individual expert's
opinion, a special approval according to § 70, sect. 1
of the German Regulations Authorising the Use of
Vehicles for Road Traffic and a special approval
according to § 29 of the German Regulations Authoris-
ing the Use of Vehicles for Road Traffic must be
carried along.
All conditions and notes specified there must be
observed. Especially the information regarding the
marking of excess-width road vehicles must be com-
plied with (two red/white marker boards each at the
front and rear, two amber flashing warning beacons).
The granting of the special approval and permits is
subject to different regulations in every Federal State.
Information can usually be obtained from your road
traffic authorities in charge.
Additional weights
Self-propelled machines with rear axle steering and fit-
ted with front attachments approved by CLAAS must
be equipped with additional weights on the rear axle
when driving on public roads.
This is required in order to prevent the machine from
lifting off at the rear when braking and on slopes and to
maintain the steering function.
The required additional weights can be made up of
implements, rear axle weights and liquid filling in the
rear axle tyres.
Depending on the type of front attachment and the
equipment fitted to the machine, the rear of the self-
propelled machine must be ballasted.
Detailed information on this matter can be obtained
from CLAAS.
Modifications to the machine
When parts of the machine whose condition is pre-
scribed are subsequently modified or installed, the
operation of which may endanger other road users, the
Operating permit (individual operating permit) and the
special approval expire.
To obtain a new individual operating permit, it is neces-
sary to present the machine to the responsible
technical inspection agency (TUEV, DEKRA) in order
to prepare an individual expert's opinion according to
§ 1 9 of the German Regulations Authorising the Use of
Vehicles for Road Traffic.
If you are in any doubt as to whether this situation
applies in your case, please contact CLAAS as the
manufacturers.
