ENGLISH
Working on hills
When possible, proceed by moving upwards in the direction of the slope.
If it is not possible to avoid working along the sides of the hill, work from top to bottom to reduce the terracing effect.
Practical hints
The worked ground must always be on the right of the driver.
The best system is to work in alternating strips.

4.17 PARKING

In order to ensure the stability of the machine, follow these instructions when it is unhooked from the tractor:
- Lower the machine to the ground.
- Make sure that machine is parked on a proper surface.
- Lower the support foot and block it with a pin.

5.0 MAINTENANCE

Here follows a list of various maintenance operations to be carried out periodically. Lowered operating costs and a longer
lasting seeding machine depend, among others, on the methodical and constant observation of mese rules.
The maintenance periods listed in this booklet are only indicative and are for on normal conditions on use, the-
refore be varied depending the kind of service, the more or less dusty surroundings, seasonal factors, etc. For
more serious conditions of service, maintenance will logically be done more often.
All operations must be carried out by expert personnel, equipped with protective gloves, in a clean and dust-free
environment.
All maintenance operations must be carried out with the machine hooked up to the tractor, the parking brake
engaged, the engine off, the ignition key removed and the equipment sitting on suitable supports on the ground.
USING OILS AND GREASES
- Before injecting grease, the nipples must be cleaned to avoid mud, dustand foreign bodies from mixing with the
grease, otherwise they will reduce or even annul the effect of the lubrication.
- Always keep oils and grease out of reach of children.
- Always read warnings and precautions indicated on the containers carefully.
- Avoid skin-contact.
- After use wash the equipment thoroughly.
- Treat the used oils and polluting liquids in conformity with the laws in force.

RECOMMENDED LUBRICANTS

- For lubrication in general, we advise: OIL SAE 80W/90.
- For all greasing points we advise: AGIP GR MU EP 2 GREASE or equivalent (specifi cations: DIN 51825 (KP2K)).
CLEANING
- The products used for cleaning must be disposed of according to the laws in force.
- Clean and maintain the machine after putting any removed guards back in position. Replace them with new ones, if they
are damaged.
- Clean the electrical components only with a dry cloth.
USING PRESSURISED CLEANING SYSTEMS (Air/Water)
- Always keep in mind the rules that regulate use of these systems.
- Do not pressure clean electrical components.
- Do not pressure clean chromium-plated components.
- Do not place the nozzle in contact with the parts of the equipment, especially the bearings. Keep it at a min.
distance of 30 cm from the surface to be cleaned.
- Thoroughly lubricate the equipment, especially after cleaning it with pressurised systems.
