4. Bring the tractor next to the machine, leaving a free space
(about 25 cm) between tractor and machine.
4.1 Turn off the tractor to prevent accidental starting or moving.
4.2 Adjust the 1st-2nd point arms of the tractor so that they are
aligned with the 1st-2nd hitching points of the equipment.
5. Bring the tractor in reverse further next to the machine, so that
the hooks of the lower bars of the tractor will automatically
hitch to the ball bushings of the lower hitching points of the
equipment. The hooks of the lower bars will automatically
lock.
6. Connect the upper 3 point linkage rod from the tractor seat to
the 3 point upper pin of the equipment.
7. Before starting the engine, make sure that the bar upper and
lower hooks are securely locked.
Transport on Road
1) When driving on public roads, be sure to follow the highway
code of the country involved.
2) Any transport accessories must be provided with suitable signs
and guards.
3) It is very important to remember that road holding capacity
as well as direction and braking capacity can be influenced,
sometimes con-siderably, by equipment being either carried
or towed.
4) When negotiating curves, be aware of the variation in centri-
fugal force exerted in a position other than that of the center
of gravity, with and without the equipment in tow. Also pay
greater attention on sloping roads or ground.
5) For transport, adjust and fasten the lateral lifting arm chains
of the tractor; check that the seed and fertilizer hopper covers
are closed properly; lock the hydraulic lifting control lever.
6) For displacements beyond the work area, the equipment must
be placed in the transportation position protective guards for
the moving parts located on the attached wings.
7) Upon request the Manufacturer will supply supports and tables
for signaling of dimensions.
(refer to paragraph 3.4 of the present manual)
8) When the dimensions of carried or partially-carried equipment
conceal the tractor's signalling and lighting devices, these must
also be installed on the equipment itself, in conformity with
regulations of the highway code of the country involved. When
in operation make sure that the lighting system is in perfect
working order. It is also important to remember that the correct
signalling sequence of the headlights includes (Fig. 6):
A - Direction indicator;
B - Red position light;
C - Stop light.

USE AND MAINTENANCE
Maintenance in safety
During working and maintenance operations, use suitable
personal protection equipment (e.g.):
1) Do not carry out maintenance or cleaning work before the
engine has been switched off, the hand brake has been put on
and the tractor has been blocked with a suitably sized stone
under each wheel.
2) During the various operations performed while the equipment
is in the raised position, it is important to secure the hydraulic
system and provide a proper support with a view to avoidind
accidental raising or lowering of the machine.
3) Work may only be carried out on the hydraulic system when it
is the lowered position and pressure has been released. Under
no circumstances should work be carried out on the system
when it is still under pressure and protective gloves must be
worn at all times.
4) Periodically check that the bolts and nuts are tight, and if
necessary tighten them again. For this it would be advisable
to use a torque wrench, respecting the values of 53 Nm for
M10 bolts, resistance class 8.8, and 150 Nm for M14 bolts
resistance class 8.8 (Table 1).
5) When the equipment is in the raised position during mounting,
maintenance, cleaning, assembling etc. operations, always
take the precaution of sustaining it with suitable supports.
N.B. Cleaning must be carried out with the machine resting on
the ground and, if possible, from the outside.
6) The spare parts must correspond to the manufacturer's spe-
cifications. Use only original spares.
NOTE: The torque values in the table should be increased by
15% where self blocking nuts are used.
