4 ASSEMBLY
4.1 LIFTING THE MACHINE
The lifting and transport operations must be performed with means suited to the weight of the machine.
Hook the machine as shown in the picture and then transport it. During the latter operation the machine should not be
lifted more than 200 mm off the ground.
4.2 MACHINES SUPPLIED PARTLY DISASSEMBLED
Sometimes machines may be delivered with some components or options not assembled because of dimension
reasons (They are, however, always included in the same package)
Undertake the assembly of these parts very carefully, also taking into consideration the charts in the spare part
catalogue and, more specifically, comply with the values given concerning the torque wrench settings of the bolts
supplied with the parts.
4.3 CONNECTING THE MACHINE TO THE TRACTOR AND TO THE 3-POINT HITCH
The mounting of the machine on the tractor is a very dangerous operation. Pay the utmost attention
and follow all directions closely while performing the entire operation. The Manufacturer will not be
held responsible for breakings or damages to property or people caused by the non-observance of
the directions contained herein.
The correct position of the tractor and the machine is determined in that the tractor should be driven to such a
distance from the machine, that the universal joint remains extended by 10-15 cm. from its maximum retracted
position.
1. Bring the lower arms of the lifting device of the tractor to rest inside the plates (A-B-C Pict..), insert the pin
into the corresponding holes and lock with the spring pins.
2. Block the lower arms of the lifting device with the proper chains and parallel tie rods of the tractor. This
procedure is to be carried out to prevent any shifting of the machine in the transversal direction
3. Connect the upper arm (C Pict..) and adjust correctly through the tie rod, making sure that the top of the
machine is parallel to the ground.
This adjustment is very important in order to obtain a parallel setting between the axis of the shaft of the PTO
of the machine and the axis of the shaft of the PTO of the tractor. Working with the machine thus adjusted
implies keeping the vibrations of the PTO at a bare minimum, which in turn helps to lengthen the lifespan of
the PTO, of the universal joint and of the machine itself.
4. Connect the universal joint and make sure it is perfectly latched on the PTO. Make sure that the protecting
guard turns freely, then secure it with the proper chain. Remove the support from the universal joint.
5. Move the supporting stands from the parking to the working position
