line shield, fastened with the relative chains, is free to turn without obstruction.
Also check the guards on both the tractor and implement. If they are not in a
perfect condition, they must be immediately replaced with new protections. It
is very important for the protective guards to overlap the driveline shields by at
least 5 cm on both sides.
When the driveline is fully extended, in all work conditions, the telescopic tubes must
overlap to at least 1/3rd of their length (A Fig. 4).
When the driveline is fully inserted, the play must be at least 4 cm (B Fig. 4). Contact
the Manufacturer's Technical Service if this is not possible.
Before engaging the PTO, make sure that its rotation speed corresponds to the rate for which the machine has been desi-

4.1.2 WORK POSITION

The operator must be seated in the driving seat of the tractor when the machine is working since only from that position is
he able to act correctly. Before he leaves the driving seat, the operator must stop the machine, apply the parking brake and
turn off the tractor engine.

4.2 HITCHING TO THE TRACTOR

Hitching to the tractor could be a dangerous operation. Take great care and strictly comply with the instructions.
Proceed in the following way to hitch the machine to the tractor in the correct way:
▪
Make sure that you are using a tractor whose configuration suits the machine in question.
▪
Make sure that there are no objects, bystanders and/or animals in the immediate vicinity of the machine and that the PTO
is disengaged.
▪
Make sure that the machine is in a stable, horizontal position, then back up the tractor towards the machine.
▪
Drive the tractor near to the implement with caution and adapt the height of the lift links to the height of the hitching pins.
▪
Move the power lift bars near and fit them on to the hitching pins. Now lock in place with the supplied split pins.
▪
Switch off the tractor engine.
▪
Connect the top link and adjust it so that the machine is on the flat.
▪
Lock the power lift bars with the relative chains and parallel idlers on the tractor. This must be done to prevent the machine
from swinging sideways.
▪
Fit the driveline into the machine's power take-off and make sure that it is perfectly locked in the correct position.
▪
Fit the driveline into the tractor's power take-off and make sure that it is perfectly locked in the correct position. Make sure
that the shield is free to turn. Fasten the shield with the relative chain. Remove the support from the driveline (4 Fig. 1) and
fix it on the relative hook.
