1 Introduction
1.1 General Information
29483
All of the requirements and obligations listed in these
documents are to be observed. In particular, the
instructions for indicating road vehicles with a wide
load are to be observed. (Two red and white striped
warning plates each in the front and at the rear, two
yellow, flashing warning lights).
Certificates of exception and exception permits are
issued in each state of Germany according to different
regulations. In general, information regarding this is
provided by your nearest road traffic licensing
department.
Additional weights
When driving on public streets, rear steering self-propelled work machines fitted with front attachments that
have received CLAAS approval must be equipped with
additional weights that act on the steering axle.
This is required in order to maintain steering of the
machine and to prevent it from lifting off at the rear
when braking and on slopes.
The required additional weights can be made up of
implements, rear axle weights and liquid filling in the
rear axle wheels.
The rear of self-propelled work machines is to be ballasted in accordance with the type of front attachment
and the equipment on the machine.
Detailed information on this matter can be obtained
from CLAAS.
Changes on the machine
If any parts of the machine are subsequently modified
whose condition is 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
(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.
Towing a trailer
A trailer for front attachments may be towed in accordance with the permissible trailed load.
If a trailer is towed behind the machine, then the cable
for the entire lighting system must be connected and
the good condition of the lighting system assured.
In addition, particular care should be taken to properly
latch the trailer hitch.

1 Introduction
1.1 General Information
29483
The towing of other trailers in the trailer hitch is not
permitted in self-propelled combine harvesters when
driving on public streets.
Identification requirements
All CLAAS self-propelled work machines are to be
labelled, in accordance with § 58 StVZO (German
Road Traffic Licensing Regulations), with 3 speed
signs on the sides and on the back.
As a self-propelled work machine with a permitted
maximum speed of up to 20 km/h, the machine is
only subject to operating licence requirements. A registration plate number is not required.
According to § 4 of the FZV (German Motor Vehicle
Registration Regulation), the machine must be permanently and clearly labelled on the left-hand side with
the owner's first and last name as well as the town of
origin (company and registered office).
As a self-propelled work machine with a permitted
maximum speed of over 20 km/h, the machine is
subject to operating licence and registration plate
requirements.
As a part of registration plate requirements, regular
recurrent vehicle inspections are to be carried out by a
technical inspection authority (TÜV, DEKRA).
Warning beacons
When driving on public roads and lanes it is not permitted to have warning beacons installed unless the
machine is of excess width.
Work lights
The work lights must be switched off during road
travel!
Folding front attachments
The retrofitting of folding front attachments will cause
the individual operating licence of the machine and the
certificate of exemption to expire.
In order to obtain a renewed individual operating
licence, the machine must be shown to the technical
inspection authority (TÜV, DEKRA) who then issues
individual approval in accordance with § 19 StVZO
(German Road Traffic Licensing Regulations).
A renewed individual operating licence is to be applied
for at the appropriate administrative agency (vehicle
registration office) and requires new individual
approval and a certificate of exemption to be
submitted.
To facilitate the issuance of individual approval for the
technical inspection authority, CLAAS can issue a
sample certificate on request if provided with the
machine type, the machine number and the year of
manufacture.

In particular, the required weight increase on the steering axle is to be observed, in order to maintain steering
and to prevent the machine from lifting off when
braking.
In the event that the required additional weights are
missing, the technical inspection authority will generally not issue an individual approval.
If it is a new CLAAS self-propelled work machine with
fitted folding front attachment and the certification was
carried out at the factory by the technical inspection
authority, then the points mentioned above do not
apply.
