2.3 Safety tips for hitching
The hitching area involves pinching and crushing
hazards.
Do not stand between the tractor and the machine
during a tractor lifting procedure, regardless of
whether it is controlled from inside the cab or
outside the tractor.
l
The equipment must be hitched to the tractor using only the intended hitch points.
l
Ensure that the equipment is compatible with the tractor (minimum engine power, hitch type,
tractor PTO specifications, etc.).
l
When positioning the equipment, select the slowest possible speed on the tractor.
l
Before hitching the equipment, ensure that the tractor lift controls are set so that the tractor
cannot move during the process.
l
Once the equipment is hitched, lock the coupling device. Check that the hitch is correctly
locked and in good condition before moving.
