SECTION 4

Operation

4.1 BEFORE USE

Before he sets the machine at work, the operator must have read and understood all parts of this manual and particularly
"Section 2" about safety.
Before beginning work, make sure that the machine is in order, that the lubricating oils are at the right level and that all parts
subject to wear and deterioration are fully efficient. Also make sure that the guards are correctly positioned.
Adjustments and operations required to prepare the machine for work must always be carried out with the machine off and

4.1.1 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. Before
beginning to work, it is very important to make sure that there is nothing (persons, animals, etc.) in the space between the
machine and tractor. Never ever get between the two machines without having first turned off the tractor engine, engaged
the parking brake and blocked the driveline. Never ever allow other persons to approach the machine in order to check it,
the driveline or the spinning tools.
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.
▪
Having reached the right position, turn off the tractor engine then fit the driveline first into the PTO of the machine and
then to the tractor PTO. Make sure that it is firmly locked in position.
▪
Move the power lift bars near and fit them into the plates. Insert the plug and lock in place with the supplied split pins (
Fig. 6).
▪
Since the power lift links of each tractor are a certain length and have a hole of a certain diameter, you must find the most
suitable position for the tractor you use by inserting the pins into the relative holes according to your needs and depending
on the diameter.
▪
Lock the power lift bars with the relative chains and idlers parallel to the tractor. This must be done to prevent the machine
