Hitching and unhitching the work vehicle to and from the tractor
Danger - Warning
Hitching the work vehicle up to the tractor is one of the riskiest moments as it could required the involvement
of several people at once, carrying out synchronised manoeuvres between the tractor driver and the operators
on the ground, which - if badly organised - could result in accidents.
The work vehicle must only ever be coupled to a tractor with an appropriate power rating which is equipped
with a lift that complies with the regulations in force, observing the maximum weight limit on the rear axle
and the gross vehicle weight (see tractor user manual).
Check that the work vehicle coupling to the tractor at the third point of the hitch is securely locked so that it
cannot work loose.
