PROPER USE OF THE MACHINE
The machine must only be used for tasks for which it has been designed.
The manufacturer will not be liable for any damage caused by using the machine for applications other than those specified by the manufacturer. Any
changes made to the machine are carried out entirely at the user's risk.
Proper use of the machine also implies:
- complying with instructions on use, care and maintenance provided by the manufacturer;
- using only original or manufacturer recommended spare parts, equipment and accessories.
The machine must only be operated, maintained and repaired by competent persons. Who are aware of the risks relating to operating the machine.
The user must strictly abide by current legislation regarding:
- accident prevention
- safety at work (health and safety regulations)
- transport on public roads (road traffic regulations)
Strict compliance with warnings affixed to the machine is obligatory.
The owner of the equipment shall become liable for any damage resulting from alterations made to the machine by the user or any other person,
without the prior written consent of the manufacturer.
HITCHING
1 - When hitching or unhitching the machine from the tractor, place the control lever of the hydraulic lift in a position that prevents the lifting mechanism
from being activated accidentally.
2 - When hitching the machine to the three-point lifting mechanism of the tractor, ensure that the diameters of the pins or gudgeons correspond to the
diameter of the tractor ball joints.
3 - Caution! In the three points lifting zone, there may be a danger of crushing and shearing.
4 - Do not stand between the tractor and the machine whilst operating the external lift control lever.
5 - When in transport, lifting mechanism stabilizer bars must be fitted to the machine to prevent friction and side movement.
6 - When transporting the machine in the raised position, lock the lift control lever.
DRIVE EQUIPMENT (Power take-off and universal drive shafts)
1 - Only use universal shafts supplied with the machine or recommended by the manufacturer.
2 - Power take-off and universal drive shaft guards must always be fitted and in good condition.
3 - Ensure that the tubes of the universal drive shafts are properly guarded, both in the working position and in the transport position.
4 - Before connecting or disconnecting a universal drive shaft, disengage the power take-off, turn off the engine and re-move the key from ignition.
5 - If the primary universal drive shaft is fitted with torque limiter or a free wheel, these must be mounted on the machine power take-off.
6 - Always ensure that universal drive shafts are fitted and locked correctly.
7 - Always ensure that universal drive shafts guards are immobilized in rotation using the specially provided chains.
8 - Before engaging power take-off, ensure that the speed selected and the direction of rotation of the power take-off comply with the manufacturer's
instructions.
9 - Before engaging power take-off, ensure that no persons or animals are close to the machine.
10 - Disengage power take-off when the universal drive shaft angle limits laid down by the manufacturer are in danger of being exceeded.
11 - Caution! When power take-off has been disengaged, moving parts may continue to rotate for a few moments. Do not approach until they have
reached a complete standstill.
12 - On removal from the machine, rest the universal drive shafts on the specially provided supports.
13 - After disconnecting the power take-off universal drive shaft of the tractor, cover it with its protective cap.
14 - Damaged power take-off and universal drive shaft guards must be replaced immediately.
HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT
1 - Caution! The hydraulic circuit is pressurized.
2 - When fitting hydraulic motors or cylinders, ensure that the circuits are connected correctly in accordance with the manufacturer's guidelines.
3 - Before fitting a hose to the tractor's hydraulic circuit, ensure that the tractor side and the machine side circuits are not pressurized.
4 - The user of the machine is strongly advised to identify the hydraulic couplings between the tractor and the machine in order to prevent connection
errors. . Caution! There is a danger of reversing the functions (for example: raise/lower).
5 - Check hydraulic hoses once a year:
- damage to the outer surface
- porosity of the outer surface
- deformation with and without pressure
- condition of fittings and seals
Hoses must be replaced before 6 years of use, in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.
6 - When a leak is found, all necessary precautions should be taken to prevent accidents.
7 - Pressurized liquid, particularly hydraulic circuit oil, may cause serious injury if it comes into contact with the skin. In the case of injury, consult a
doctor immediately. There is a risk of infection.
8 - Before carrying out any work on the hydraulic circuit, lower the machine, release the pressure from the circuit, turn off the engine and remove the
key from ignition.
MAINTENANCE
1 - Before commencing any maintenance, servicing or repair work, it is essential that the power take-off is disengaged, the engine turned off and the
key removed from the ignition.
2 - Check regularly that nuts and screws are not loose. Tighten if necessary. After the first few hours of use (4 hours), all screws must be tightened.
Then repeat the operation every 80 hours.
3 - Before carrying out maintenance work on a raised machine, prop it up using appropriate means of support.
4 - When replacing a working part, wear protective gloves and only use appropriate tools.
5 - To protect the environment, it is forbidden to throw away oil, grease or filters of any kind.
6 - Before carrying out any work on the electric circuit, disconnect the power source.
7 - Parts subject to wear and tear should be checked regularly. Replace them immediately if they are damaged or worn
8 - Spare parts should comply with the standards and specifications laid down by the manufacturer. Only use MONOSEM spare parts.
9 - Before commencing any electric welding work on the tractor or the towed machine, disconnect the alternator and battery cables.
10 - Repairs affecting parts under stress or pressure should be carried out by suitably qualified engineers.
