ENGLISH
4) Be very careful when hooking and unhooking the equipment.
5) It is absolutely forbidden to stand between the tractor and linkage
for manoeuvring the lifting controls from the outside (Fig. 3).
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 centrifu-
gal 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) Road movements must be performed with all tanks empty.
For displacements beyond the work area, the equipment must
be placed in the transportation position.
7) Upon request the Manufacturer will supply supports and tables
for signaling of dimensions.
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. 4):
A - Direction indicator;
B - Red position light;
C - Stop light

USE AND MAINTENANCE
Maintenance in safety
1) Do not carry out maintenance or cleaning work before the en-
gine 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) Periodically check that the bolts and nuts are tight, and if ne-
cessary 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).
3) While carrying out fitting, maintenance, cleaning, assembly
operations and so on, with the equipment lifted, use suitable
safety supports as a precaution.
N.B. Cleaning must be carried out with the machine resting on
the ground and, if possible, from the outside.
4) The spare parts must correspond to the manufacturer's spe-
cifications. Use only original spares.
