not used.
▪
Only clean and grease the driveline when the PTO is disengaged, the engine
off, the parking brake engaged and the ignition key removed from the trac-
tor's ignition switch.
▪
Rest the driveline on its stand (4 Fig. 1) when not used.
▪
Prolonged use of the machine can cause the overdrive housing (5 Fig. 1) and
certain parts of the hydraulic circuit to overheat. Do not touch these parts
during and immediately after using the machine since they could cause
burns.
▪
Do not carry out servicing or cleaning operations unless the PTO has been disengaged and the tractor engine turned off.
▪
Periodically check to make sure that the nuts and bolts are well torqued. Tighten them if necessary.
▪
Place adequate supports under the machine as a precaution when servicing or replacing the tines/blades with the machine
raised.
▪
Before working on the cutting tools, detach the PTO, turn off the tractor engine, engage the parking brake and make sure
that the tines are at a standstill.
▪
Use the recommended oils.
▪
Spare parts must comply with the requirements established by the Manufacturer. Only use genuine spare parts.
▪
The safety decals must always be clearly visible. They must be kept clean and replaced if they become illegible (new ones
can be obtained from the Manufacturer).
▪
The instruction manual must be kept throughout the life of the machine.
▪
If the country in which the machine is used has noise prevention laws, adapt to these provisions by using the appropriate
protections. The measured noise levels are given in section «1.5 Noise level».
▪
Comply with the laws in force in the country where the machine is used when it comes to using and disposing of the pro-
ducts used to clean and service the machine. Also comply with the instructions given by the manufacturer of such products.
▪
Comply with the anti-pollution laws in force in the country of use if the machine must be scrapped.
SECTION 3
Transport and handling
3.1 TRANSPORT AND HANDLING
If the machine, hitched to the tractor, must circulate on the public roads, comply with the Highway Code regulations in
The machine must be raised at least 16" inch from the ground for road transport.
If the machine must be transported over a long distance, it can be loaded on a truck or railway car. In this case, consult «Machine
dimensions» for the weight and dimensions. This will allow you to make sure that the machine can pass through tunnels or low
constructions without difficulty. To lift the machine from the ground to the loading platform, use a crane with an adequate carrying
capacity and hook up the machine from the relative lifting points indicated on the machine.
Loading with a crane: make sure that the carrying capacity of the crane is fit to lift the weight of the machine. The connecting
points for lifting are clearly visible and are marked by stickers. Lift the machine with the utmost care and move it slowly without
jolting on to the truck or railway car.
The lifting and transporting operations can be very dangerous unless they are carried out with the greatest care: have
all persons not directly involved in the lifting operations move well clear of the lifting area. Clear and delimit the zone to
which the machine is to be transferred. Make sure that the available lifting means are fit for the purpose. Do not touch
hanging loads and always keep at a safety distance from them. When transported, the loads must not be lifted more than
20 centimeters from the ground. Also make sure that the zone in which the operations take place is uncluttered and that
there is a sufficient «escape route», i.e. a clear and safe zone to which the operators can quickly move if the load should
