Coupling and uncoupling the implement

Only connect and transport the implement with tractors suitable for the task.

When coupling implements to the tractor's three-point hydraulic system, the mounting categories
of the tractor and the implement must always be compatible.

Connect the implement to the prescribed equipment in accordance with the specifications.

When coupling implements to the front or the rear of the tractor, the following may not be
exceeded:

the permissible total tractor weight

the permissible tractor axle loads

the permissible load-bearing capacities of the tractor tyres

Secure the tractor and the implement against unintentional rolling away before coupling or
uncoupling the implement.

It is forbidden for people to stand between the implement to be coupled and the tractor while the
tractor is approaching the implement.
Any helpers may only act as guides standing next to the vehicles, and may only move between
the vehicles when both are at a standstill.

Before the implement is connected to or disconnected from the tractor's three-point hydraulic
system, secure the operating lever of the tractor hydraulic system so that unintentional raising or
lowering is impossible.

When coupling and uncoupling implements, move the support equipment (if equipped) to the
appropriate position (stability).

When actuating the support equipment, there is a danger of injury from crushing and shearing
points.

Be particularly careful when coupling the implement to the tractor or uncoupling it from the
tractor. There are crushing and shear points in the area of the coupling points between the tractor
and the implement.

It is forbidden to stand between the tractor and the implement when actuating the three-point
hydraulic system.

Coupled supply lines:

must easily give way to all movements in bends without tensioning, kinking or rubbing

may not chafe against other parts.

The release ropes for quick action couplings must hang loosely and may not release themselves
when lowered.

Also ensure that uncoupled implements are always parked in a stable position.
