ged, promptly inform BATTISTOTTI MACCHINE AGRICOLE S.r.l. directly.
Upon delivery of the machine, ask the following expressly:
a)
that the machine be delivered to you assembled in full; this procedure is necessary as,
for reasons of overall dimensions, the machine often travels partially disassembled;
b)
that the machine be tested in your presence, particularly checking:
•
all the protections are present and secured to the machine;
•
the protective guards are present and correctly installed.

4.3 TRANSPORTING AND HANDLING THE MACHINE
Before all handling, always make sure that the lifting equip-
ment and related tools (cables, hooks, etc.) are suitable for li-
fting the load to be handled and check the necessary stability
of the latter. The weight of the machine at the maximum setup
level permitted is printed on its identification data plate; use
slings and lifting equipment with sufficient capacities. It is ad-
visable to apply a suitable sling to the load to be handled as
shown in the figure opposite; the points to use are clearly indicated with a dedicated
symbol on the machine (see FIG. 9).
IT IS FORBIDDEN
TO WALK OR STAND UNDER THE MACHINE WHILE IT IS LIFTED.
THE MACHINE IS FITTED WITH A SAFETY LOCKING VALVE THAT RETAINS ITS INI-
TIAL POSITION IN THE EVENT OF A PRESSURE LEAK.
4.3.1 PARKING THE BMA INTER-ROW WEEDER
The machine is designed to be parked safely with the equipment fitted on compact
soil with slopes with a gradient of up to
8.5°
. The BMA INTER-ROW WEEDER must be
parked with the equipment connected. DO NOT PARK THE MACHINE ON YIELDING
SOIL OR SLOPES WITH STEEP GRADIENTS.
4.3.2 HANDLING THE BMA INTER-ROW WEEDER
Keep to the above general notes for lifting (see point 4.3).
4.4 COUPLING WITH THE TRACTOR
The tractor must be equipped with a three-point lift (A) (see FIG.
10) suitable for safely supporting the weight discharged onto it by the
BMA INTER-ROW WEEDER, with a pneumatic system and an electrical
service system (Faston socket like a cigarette lighter). Check this by con-
sulting the table of possible setups permitted annexed to this manual.
